Microsoft killed Groove, is Movies and TV next?

[bobsentell]

With the apparent punting of the consumer music market and the recent news that Disney was pulling support from Disney Movies Anywhere (which still works for me, oddly enough), could Microsoft end up dumping Movies and TV? And if they did, who would you rather they move us to:

• Amazon Prime
• iTunes
• Vudu
• Other

They will always have a video playing app. But I've honestly been relying on vlc player more given it can run discs. If the market just isn't there, is it worth Microsoft continuing to operate their own video store?

I am wondering the same thing. I have hundreds of movies purchased through Microsoft.

I am nervous about this too! I hope not! But at this point, it wouldn't be a surprise either!

O God, what is the next thing they will kill? Is it Windows OS? Perhaps that is why they renamed the store to Microsoft store.

It's the 3.5mm audio jack, for sure. I mean, with Groove pass gone, why bother with earphones on WP. Apple was right all along!!

It's (effectively) confirmed that they will kill Windows 10 Mobile

They will probably kill their Surface line

Geez, I hope not; I have a pretty decent library for tv shows.
