Xbox Unlocks Entertainment This Weekend
BeckyStrause
This weekend, April 19-23, Xbox 360 owners, who do not have Live Gold accounts, can get a taste of some free music, TV shows and movies. During this promo called “Entertainment Unlocked”, users will have access to SyFy, Crackle, Epix, YouTube, Vevo, and other entertainment sites. Netflix and Hulu Plus are kicking in free 30-day trials. And other online providers will offer streaming music and movies.
Considering some of the sites can be accessed anywhere at a anytime, such as YouTube, is this really enough of an offering to drum up more Xbox Live Gold memberships? There will not be free access to online gaming, or other perks Gold member enjoy, as Microsoft is focusing solely on entertainment with this promotion.
Free entertainment is free entertainment! So if you get a chance to take a peek at the action, enjoy!
