Windows 8 For Entertainment

If you have updated to Windows 8 you might have noticed that in the store there are media apps. Instead of going to Hulu for example through your web browser you would install a Windows app. The dedicated app is not much different than actually going on the site, but the interface for most media apps are clean and easy to use. Why use apps? If you have a touch screen computer than having the app installed is like using any type of tablet like Android or iOS. As Windows moves to a more tablet like experience you will have all your media apps in one area at the click of a mouse. On my touch screen computer this is a nice feature, but on my laptop without touch I rather just go to the web site. Exploring the new app store in Windows 8 you will find many great apps to consume free media as a cord cutter there is a nice collection of apps to pull your favorite content into one spot.
