When the One launched I had the option to download my movies for offline viewing and to avoid buffering, which is horrendous in this app. Now the option is gone, and it has been for quite some time. I gave it time, hoping in vain I would be able to watch my collection in good quality to no avail. The two stars is for the decent sales and library, but the quality of the stream, coupled with no download option means there will be no more purchases from me until I see a download option.

With each update comes a new host of issues that take days orweeks to iron out. The latest is not recohnizing I'm online to play a movie even though I'm confirmed online everywhere else in XBL. Quiting/restarting app and reinstalling app have no effect. Especially weird/annoying because it played fine earlier in the day.

I have idea what happened to this app, but it used to work really well. Now it won't play anything for longer than 20 seconds at best without buffering or just straight up quitting on the movie all together. When thats not happening (which, by the way, it is happening 99% of the time), movies play in 144p or 240p near constantly, and if it hits 420p or higher it just buffers and we're back to square one. My original review for this app was 4 stars with my only gripe being an inability to sort movies on xbox. Now it's only saved from 1 star because it does, in fact, play movies, even if it takes 6 or so hours to watch a single 2 hour movie.

It's a great basic media player. The only reason I don't give it five stars is that it lacks the fine controls of more established media players. However it plays many formats and is a light weight non-resource intensive app.

This app reminds me of my girlfriend. It's filled with laughter, drama, comedy and tears, and often makes me cry at unexpected moments. And always leaves me wondering what the heck did I just watch, did this really just happen, how the heck can I explain this to someone. life is to short to live with out these moments. I give this app 5 stars, and just like my girlfriend I find myself going to bed with it turn on everynight.

high anime season prices and could u get more gundam shows

As someone who often pauses and unpauses movie a lot, I am quite impressed with the short amount of time it takes to unpause the movie. Another reason why this app is so good is because the rewind and fast forward modes are SO good. There are many different variations of speed to assist you with finding a certain scene in a movie should you get lost, so that's very helpful.

This app is simple and easy to use. The trailers playing in the background is a nice touch. The layout is user friendly and concise, I never get the feeling that I dont know where anything is.

Only downsides are that purchased movies are NOT available to download to your hard drive so if you are offline, NO movies for you... Thats totally unacceptable and really shouldnt be tolerated since we pay for these movies & shows, all are usually way over-priced. You can't even pin any movies to your home page.. Its very basic and it doesnt go into much customizing depth. That may not sound good but the upside is that its simple & definitely reliable. Its not meant to do anything else other than store & organize your TV & movies. Designed specifically with beginners in mind.

Keep the features coming, very easy to use, super fast!
