It disabled SkyPlayer in the UK

I already got Twitter, Facebook and last.fm and I don't even think I signed up for the preview program, hahaha. Go me.

I'm in the preview program and I'm digging the update to the video marketplace. It now remembers all the content you've ever downloaded so you can re-download anything you want quickly. It also lets you stream content that you've purchased but have since deleted from you hard drive though it only appears to work on things I've purchased post update.

I'm in the preview facebook is ok I tend to use my iPhone for facebook cause you can't look at peoples walls.

But I'm digging last.fm and I don't use Twitter at all cause well I just don't see the point of bloging every little thing of my life

Yeah, also very disappointed in the preview. The Twitter client is genuinely terrible - there are dozens of better iPhone clients made by lone developers, so god knows how MS cocked that up. It's clumsy, brings up the keyboard dialogue box even if you have a chatpad, doesn't allow automatic pasting of things like achievement or now playing announcements, doesn't allow more than one username per gamertag, can't follow links because there's no web browser, can't post links to marketplace content to share with other Xbox users etc etc etc.

The Facebook client isn't much better. It's not a Facebook client. It's a Facebook status viewer (with all the problems of the Twitter client at that) and a photo viewer. It doesn't do any of the other things Facebook is, and the few things it does are mediocre.

The only good addition is the Last.fm client, though I'd much rather have had Spotify and the 360's fans don't exactly lend it to music listening either.

Meanwhile these new additions, the Zune video store (seems exactly as useless as the old one if outside the US) and the complete shambles that has been the failed SkyPlayer launch have demonstrated one thing - the Xbox UI is crap for any lists of long items (anything longer than about five items). You can't see how long the list is in advance, search, sort into orders, see more than three or four items at a time and you can only move through labouriously one at a time. It needs a major rethink for lots of items.

@The Phazer
You're totally right about the way Xbox sucks for long lists of items, but my biggest problem isn't the lack of searching or sorting, but the fact that I get seriously motion sick after scrolling through about 10 items. Seriously, on Netflix I can't see all the recommended movies because I get dizzy and have to leave the room for a while sometimes. It's ridiculous.
