The FOX Broadcast app on Xbox 360 has launched today for Xbox Live Gold subscribers who are also Dish or Verizon FiOS customers. The app provides next-day access to FOX shows and the FOX Broadcast programming network. The app will also include Kinect integration, allowing you to play, pause and rewind using your hands or voice. (Xbox 360)

Meh
Again forcing us to pay a subscription to use a service that should be free to us.
I'm too smart to get ripped off.

I'd be more concerned with poisoned media content people would be exposed to.

And what the heck's the point of "next day access" to news?

Nice
I like when they add stuff to the members only side. It helps justify being a member.

Oh and for some perspective. cloud saves, auto trophy sync, auto downloads. Yup those are a few features for the paid ps+.

I guess the point would be, if you are a paying member of something, you would want as much for your member$hip as you can. Otherwise, if everyone gets the same as you then why be a member at all?

I don't know about forcing but it is justifying a paid subcription with added content.

@Godmars290

It is the Fox channel, not Fox news.
Godmars290  +   238d ago
Ouch...
Yeah, I had a real Emily Litella moment. What's worse is that I've been watch some of theirs, MSNBC and TYT clips on Youtube, so I'm not only being ditzy but a hypocrite.

But at least I'm not paying for Youtube past provider!

And if you don't know who Emily Litella is - google. Or Bing or whatever.

Free?
I'm at least glad it isn't free, the more limited access Fox has the better.

@Godmars290

They're called vintage news! News are like wine

Well I pay for XBL because I feel it's a premium service and really connects me to the community. Helps a lot with my NHL league games and general chit chat with friends and family while playing. Since I own XBL simply for the online gaming community, everything else is just an added bonus.

This FOX app is Free for me since my yearly subscription is for the online gaming community. That is why I pay. I am not paying for apps and anyone who thinks that they are "forced" to pay for APPS and completely ignoring what the bigger picture of what the cost of XBL goes to are just ignorant at best.

Anyone who would PAY for XBL just to access APPs are just foolish.

I most likely will never use this app, just like many other apps that are available to me as a gold member, but to think that I am paying my yearly membership for these apps is crazy talk and is a blind argument from those who are nit picking the smallest of features simply to paint a negative perspective on a paid service that has a primary feature function they are choosing to ignore.
