I read "odor" as "Hodor"

That benefit went away real fast. Rumors I guess.

Everyone knew this was utter crap when it was announced. The most it could have ever done was add some extra detail to textures in small scale MP maps, but even then less than 1% of the US, let alone the rest of the world, would even have the internet connection to support it. It's all just one big PR stunt, that involves nothing but throwing simple random numbers to fool less intelligent people into falling for it. Kindof why it's yet to be remotely demonstrated, and the games (i.e. Forza 5, Titanfall, etc.) that claim to use it haven't exactly proven it's case.

Maybe its not ready?

On paper is seems like bullshit. But MS is still pushing it as you can see from the link I posted above, that tells me MAYBE they will actually deliver.

Not ready yet? It was supposed to happen with the release of the console. Titanfall was not possible without it and all that jazz. none of true of course, but some just like to play the wait and you'll see game.
