If I didn't have my computer hooked up to my Plasma this would all be more appealing. Still, this is a good amount of content. The only one I see getting some real use around here would be the Karaoke one. Be cool if they had songs from other countries, as I know my wife would LOVE if they had Chinese songs, but I'm sure they'll probably be limited to country of origin to cut down on rights issues.

Not that appealing..most services are only availible in "country of origin" http://www.freep.com/article/201212...e-grows?odyssey=mod|newswell|text|FRONTPAGE|s

THEN WHOOP-DE-DO, WHO CARES?

it would be cool if those were all available here, but looks like most have expensive monthly fees.

OP also did not copy the whole thing -

1Xbox LIVE Gold subscription and/or additional subscriptions/fees may be required. Kinect functionality available with select Xbox LIVE content and varies by feature and country.

Sorry about that, I thought everyone knew you needed Gold to use any of these services. Still if you're a gamer, it's some nice additions to your subscription. I for one am glad they finally added Slacker Radio as I don't have an Xbox Music subscription. Nice to see CNET there too. Now I might actually get around to seeing Molly Wood's "Always On" show.

Man before to long your going to be able to use your X-box for about everything.

I welcome the additions. I wont use most of them, but it is fast becoming a one stop box for home entertainment.

I know, that, my point was, is that most of these services are going to cost extra.
