Yes, Xbox is fairly sophisticated (at least last time I used it for such) as a TV computer, but using the controller is a horrible experience to me. AppleTV, with all it's flaws, is a far superior experience for me as far as a TV add-on.
- r00fus 9y agoI think nostromo's point is that Apple knows when a hobby is a hobby. Homepod will distort/control the "voice controlled assistant" market by Apple's sheer size. Also I agree with Apple's approach to privacy. I'm still not convinced I need a Homepod, but if i were to get a voice enabled speaker I'd get that. Alexa skills sound nice, but I've yet to hear of a meaningful usage of them that isn't just "a slightly nicer way to do X". For the price of my privacy, I'm not ready to buy that.
- Clubber 9y agoYes, the digital assistant doesn't do anything for me either. I'd probably turn that off if I could. Also, I have one I carry around in my pocket that I rarely use. I bought it for the sound and the algorithm they are using inside it to distribute sound with the x tweeters and y mics and all that. I think it's something that hasn't been done before, or I've never owned something that's done that. It might be over hyped, but I hope not.
