Zune HD And The Xbox - From The E3 Media Briefing
I'm here at the Microsoft Media Briefing for the Xbox at E3. The content presented here will mostly be about games and I'll let the others cover that content.
If and when Zune HD content comes into the discussion, I'll post details and thoughts here.
- Last FM on Xbox Live. Will it be on the Zune?
- Zune HD will be "replacing" the Xbox Marketplace in name. Looks like we'll have to increase to scope of this blog.
- "No disks, no downloads, no delays."
- Zune video on Xbox LIVE has instant on, streaming content in 1080p HD with 5.1 surround sound. Looks like a TON of content is being added.
- Added countries are Austria, Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, & Switzerland.
- Also being added to Xbox 360 - Facebook and Twitter. Will they put those on the Zune HD? Does the "Social" go away? How can the "Social" not go away?
- The "You Are The Controller" demo showed the viewing of content by voice and body movements. Zune HD by body expression?

Thoughts?
