The UI on the Xbox is a complete eyesore to me.  I am hoping that it will grow on me over time.  The amount of advertising that immediately leaps out to me on each tab is a complete turn off though.  I understand advertising things in the store tab, but must I see what Twitch channels have high viewership without specifically going to Twitch?  Seems unnecessary to me.  That said, I do enjoy the Pin tab.  At least I have complete control there.  I didn't spend much time in the settings menus yet so maybe I am overlooking the ability to customize (or remove) the other tabs... hopefully.

I'm no fan of the tiles-look, but after immediately changing the default color from green to a dark blue, it is okay. The ads don't bother me much... I (almost automatically) press the LB-button to switch from the home screen to the "pin screen". Then I have my 9 pins with my favorite functions on the left, the main tile in the middle, "docking" and "my games/apps" (so the whole library only one click away) on the right and the last played games at the bottom.
