They made it that way so gamers and non-gamers can both get something out of it, let it be for movies, music, DVR...you know, HTPC.
That's a flaw. Microsoft is always about trying to please everyone with every product they release. It works fine for Windows, because everyone uses a computer now. The XBox is a GAMING console. Not an HTPC. You can buy products to be an HTPC for less than the XBox One, so there is no reason for non-gamers to buy it. The fact that they are pushing those useless features so hard (TV, Sports, blah blah) is hurting them more than helping. Gamers want content that applies to games and enhances their gaming experience. No one cares that you can watch movies on it, because you can watch movies on any device that can connect to the Internet. And TV? Well, that's what...you know...cable is for.
As I said before, Microsoft is not a company that should be in the gaming industry. They clearly don't understand the user base well enough to please them.
