I would say getting an external HDD solves any install speed issues. I downloaded Dragon Age digitally through EA Access last week in under 2 hours (DA is over 40 GB) while it took me about 6 hours to download both AC games that came with the bundle on the Xbox hdd. Not sure how many GBS they are but probably at least 50 GB combined so it definitely increased the time install time significantly.

Though even the original HDD is faster for me than the PS4. It took me about 5 hours to download the Black Ops 3 beta yesterday which is ridiculous for only 12 GB. Next week on the X1 I'll probably download it in under an hour which is a significant difference. And Dying Light which was only 20 or so gGB took about 6 hours.

Everyone has the same issues with the UI. It's horrible, but they are updating in November and if you're in the preview program it'll be updated next month. The video of it looks great but I'll wait to see when it comes out.
