You are right, sorry. Deleted.


How often do you forget to click on your icon? To be able to do it automatically should be much nicer, don't you think?

You don't pay money for tracked stuff. You pay for the ability to has this opportunity + your personal profile, lists, recomendation etc.

Just imho


Much nicer is a really big word for some scrobbling and suggestions.

I pay money for tracked stuff you say, but they're basically tracking what trakt.tv already does, hooking into their recommendation engine, and then serving the result in some nice sauce.

I think marketingwise this is brilliant, but I would never pay money for it. As said above, this is a nice to have feature on top of a lot of other things. Content availability being the most important IMO.


"TIME WASTED" is one of their feature. I think much more valuable will be knowledge what you have to watch next and what you have missed.


Trakt

- doesn't detect what you are watching on PC,

- doesn't detect what you are watching onlie(HULU, Netflix),

- doesn't has Anime DB(as I know they just parse TheTVDB).

Just saing what I've read from their campaign and retelling my comment below.

P.S. Yes, redirect from search input is pretty annoying


Detecting what you are watching on Hulu or Netflix is a stretch goal for them and according to their description it would only be for Chrome. Right now it's limited to avi, mkv, mp4, m4v files you watch on your computer.


If you are using xbmc or plex on your mac/pc there's a plugin to scrobble to trakt, not really a feature to set them apart.


As I can see. They track PC and try to do the same with online content. Also, maybe better watched list.
