I'm not hugely okay with them, I always felt like Microsoft was trying to sell me stuff more than just encouraging me to play my games.
Really, all I want in my interface is: (in this order)
- Start game in disc
- Netflix
- Digital games
- Achievements/Trophies
- Friends list, though it's less important
I always buy the games on my PC and don't really want to be sold stuff. I know the "cursor" is on the game by default, but it still pissed me off when I look at it.
The advertising games stuff is fairly okay, but I used to get adverts for broadband. Let's not forget, this was in an age when I was getting PS online for free, then having to pay for Xbox Live Gold and seeing adverts.
To be fair, Sony did something fairly similar with their "What's New" section on the XMB, though it's basically gone on the PS4.
And finally, when you launch Steam, you see a web store!
