The latest rumors suggests Microsoft may soon announce a brand new version of the Xbox One that comes without a Blu-ray drive.

The all digital video game console will only be able to play digitally downloaded games, but without a Blu-ray drive that currently occupies as much as a third of the space in the existing Xbox One console, the new console, dubbed the Xbox One Mini, will be much smaller in size.

The removal of the Blu-ray drive, along with successful efforts by AMD to shrink the console's APU from 28nm to a cheaper and more power efficient 20nm process, will also make the Xbox One Mini much cheaper, yet still capable of playing all Xbox One games.

The new console, if the rumors prove to be true, will also retain Xbox 360 backwards compatibility for digital games.

According to the rumor, the new Xbox One, along with new Surface Pro and Lumia devices, will be unveiled at a Microsoft hardware event in October.

With some in the music industry growing increasingly annoyed at Spotify's free listening plan, blaming it for decreased earnings, Spotify warns that its free plan is the only thing helping to keep piracy down.

Artists includes Taylor Swift, Thom Yorke, Beck, Pink Floyd and Neil Young have all expressed concern about how Spotify pays artists, with Swift eventually taking the drastic step of removing all of her songs from Spotify's library. However, according to Sachin Dosh, Spotify’s Vice President of content and distribution, the freemium model is an essential tool to keep piracy at bay, and helps artists monetize fans that otherwise may not have been paying to listen anyway.

"We've done such a great job at Spotify of making piracy irrelevant, but that doesn’t mean it’s gone. It just means there’s no need for it right now," Dosh told MBW. "You could create that need again if you follow the wrong path," he warned.

As for the issues with revenue, it's all about enticing users to want to pay for Spotify's premium plan, by making them better.

"…I think the industry does actually agree with a lot of this: instead of making free worse, the right answer is making premium better," says Dosh.

Dosh then goes on to explain that this will not necessarily lead to exclusive content for premium subscribers, but hinted at "other features" that leads to "creating a better experience" for users.

Meanwhile, Spotify took to their official blog to address the recent controversy regarding the service's updated user agreements, which has spooked users worried about the potential privacy invading changes.

The new privacy policy gives Spotify the right to access the user's photos, location, microphone and contacts, and also grants limited sharing of user information with advertisers. Spotify CEO Daniel Ek took to the official Spotify blog to clarify what these new changes actually mean, and to apologise for not properly "communicating what these policies mean".

The results and analysis for Blu-ray (and DVD) sales for the week ending 15th August 2015 is in. It's another poor set of results for Blu-ray, as once again, the quantity and quality of new releases were less than desired. Out of the new releases, Hot Pursuit was the best selling.

Two independent surveys shows that while the popularity of SVOD services such as Netflix has changed the way consumers watch content, many still prefer to buy, rent their movies and TV shows, and many still exclusively rely on packaged media.

A survey by Nielsen found that 73% of American consumers still buy or rent movies and TV shows. Out of these consumers, 61% went for packaged media (including Blu-ray and DVD), while 53% has bought or rented a digital file, and 41% said they consumed both types of content. This means that 20% (61% minus 41%) used packaged media exclusively.

For SVOD, it now accounts for 10% of weekly viewing hours for consumers (compared to 34% for broadcast TV, 12% for video games and 7% for packaged media). Consumers also said that SVOD has changed their buying habits, with 3% saying they buy less TV shows on discs as a result, and are going to the movies less.

A separate study from Futuresource Consulting has found that 50% of survey respondents still buy discs, and the proportion of disc buyers in the US and UK are actually up compared to the last survey.

The data shows that 20% of all digital consumers still buy discs, with those in the US more likely to buy them than compared to consumers in Canada, Australia, Germany, the UK and France.

Interestingly, the data shows that DVD buyers are increasingly female, those most likely to have children under 12 at home. Consumers that are more willing to adopt new tech actually tend to prefer packaged media over digital services.
