I really hope a future stability update fixes the auto-eject bug. The problem-- at least on my machine-- is software related since it's a software solution that solves it; force downloading and reinstalling the most recent firmware fixes the issue temporarily.

Have you tried unplugging the console for 3-5 minutes?

Yeah, unfortunately I saw this yesterday right after I did the "firmware fix", so I don't have a way to test it out unless/until the problem happens again. The problem also didn't start for me until FW 1.76, so I'm hoping 2.0-- or whatever incremental update comes before that-- sorts it.

So, aside from DLNA, what other features has the XB1 received through updates, that the PS4 really needs?

Just curious, since all I do with my (new used) XB1 is game pretty much (I used to watch U-Verse TV through the HDMI-passthrough, but the feed looks like shit. The XB1 degrades it pretty noticeably). For gaming, the PS4 is a much better option.

For starters they could give us the simple ability to see when our friends get online. The fact that they can't even do that in a timely manner gives me little hope we'll ever see something like suspend/resume or many of the other features on XB1. They can't even get the basics out to us within a year of launch, so by the time they eventually do release a suspend/resume and then take months of stability updates to iron out the bugs so that it's actually usable we'll probably be looking at the next generation of consoles.

As a primarily 360 gamer last gen I would just download updates whenever I fired up my PS3 a few times a month. So I never really had a grasp on just how painfully slow and pathetic their process was when adding features. Now that I went with the PS4 as my go-to console it's plain as day and I miss Live. I wasn't planning to grab an XB1 til Gears and hopefully a slimmer model came out. Now I'm thinking about grabbing one this holiday or as soon as they release an Xfinity app for it...something that I use every day on 360 that I'll never get on my PS4.
