Amazon's LOVEFiLM Launches Streaming Application on Microsoft's Xbox One

LONDON, November 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --



From today members of LOVEFiLM, an Amazon company, can access thousands of films and
TV shows from the LOVEFiLM Instant streaming catalogue on Xbox One, Microsoft's new
generation all-in-one gaming and entertainment system.



Available now from the Xbox One App Marketplace, the LOVEFiLM Instant app features all
of the service's most popular features including 1080P high definition streaming, Dolby(R)
Digital Plus (5.1) surround sound, the Watchlist - allowing members to organise the film
and TV shows they want to watch at a later date - and Whispersync technology to make pause
and resume viewing on another device easier than ever before.



The app will also support a variety of new Xbox One features. 'Snap' and 'fill' modes
allow members to view content from a side panel on the screen while navigating other
menus, games or apps in the main window. Achievements and Challenges are also supported
with members able to earn badges by fulfilling actions such as adding titles to their
WatchList or watching new releases.



The Xbox One's Kinect motion sensor also enhances the viewing experience by allowing
easier navigation around the LOVEFiLM Instant catalogue. Users can browse, select and move
through content with the wave of a hand, while voice commands are also supported.



Simon Morris, Chief Marketing Office, at LOVEFiLM said:



"The next generation of videogame consoles is a fantastically exciting prospect for
LOVEFiLM members in the UK, as accessing and discovering quality content will be easier
and even more intuitive than ever before."
