The xbone pitch was amazing for gamers who watched tv, it just never worked well out of the box. To actually watch live tv, you had to buy an additional dongle and an antenna, and then after spending all that on setting up your media center, you had to buy the remote separately.

And then the whole experience wasn't as smooth as it should have been, and cable integration was very buggy in my experience.
