@khalidabuhakmeh so after sticking with a dumb TV hooked to an Xbox for over a decade, I finally cracked for a Google TV. I'm not super happy about it but at least I have all the apps.
I really hope they take this opportunity to turn around and introduce a Microsoft version of the chrome cast, with the Google Play store, and a kick ass cloud gaming application + a controller for under 100usd.
The Xbox OS and application story is beyond recovery IMHO, and that's sad.
