Trailer Time.
April 21, 2010
As I'm sure you're aware I have an XBox 360, I love my 360, I like all the many thing it can do. I don't however see the point of downloading trailers one it. The way it's implemented is kind of backwards. You search for the trailer you want to watch, download it, then load if from your hard drive to watch it, then you delete it. My problem comes from that, the whole deleting thing.
When I was at my friend Chris' the other week he was going through his hard drive and there was dozens of old trailers just sitting there wasting space. So he had to sit there and delete them all one by one, kind of a pain in the ass. There is a delete all videos option, but when some of those videos are movies, or TV episodes you actually paid for an option like that kind of becomes pointless.
What Microsoft should do is make a seperate folder in the hard drive for trailers so you can purge the folder without fear of deleting something you paid for, or better yet, since you have to be connected to the internet to download these trailers to begin with why not just let people stream them and bypass the download entirely?
