Epix HD, CW and other Xbox 360 apps
As of this moment Cox is still the ONLY provider that does not "support" these functions. Verizon, Comcast and several others. Why? You guys always seem to be the last to adopt these functions. Yes I know you just recently allowed Epix on Ipad and Android but come on its been almost 2 years. Today Xbox announced Xbox One with the ability to view your normal TV stream through the console. I will be willing to bet you will be last to get in on this as well and I don't understand. I will say that if the trend continues I'll have no choice but to switch to a provider that is the front runner for new tech and not Johnny come 2 years if ever lately!
PS. here is a link to a thread http://forums.cox.com/forum_home/internet_forum/f/5/t/268.aspx from more than a year ago about the same topic - with no answer just I'll look into it and no further comments!

I'll definitely submit a request for this programming on your behalf. Epix charges us fees to make this content available to our customers which along with customer demand have to be considered when deciding which content to add will bring the best edition to the overall value of our product offering.

So why isn't that fee just rolled in to the movie pak? I cancelled the movie pak specifically because Epix on the Xbox 360 wasn't supported.

sorry but that answer is just lip service - you guys provide this capability to android and ipads!!! So I highly doubt the Xbox, PS3 or other devices would cause such a difficulty. we are already paying for the channel - this is just another means to watch Epix. Funny how all your competitors already allow this service on ALL devices and have for over a YEAR! Like I said in my original post the new Xbox One gives you the capability to watch your programming through the console itself. I will bet you all will be the last to allow that functionality. Seems our "friend" in the digital age is SLOW to adapt to new apps and abilities.

yet you support android and ipad devices to use the very same Epix app you have been stalling on the Xbox.(I included your links below) yet another excuse just like in the post I linked in my original post from over a year ago. we'll look into it. we will pass it along - blah blah and a year later this probable still won't be available. one last thing apparently in some markets this functionality is allowed which really makes no sense - my money is the same as the folks who already get this.

Another important factor we have to consider is that Epix charges us separately for each platform they provide content for. We have to consider the demand specifically for xbox viewing against the fee which they are asking for said access. This is why we continue to track requests for this access.
