You thought microsoft was done shoving there ***** up your ass? Think again ;)

It was recently confirmed that using the DVR feature (which obviously is hardware based) and using skype on xbone will now require a gold membership. That's right, xbox features which really don't even require any sort of microsoft servers and whatnot are still going to be lumped in with XBL.

I told you that they were going to find new ways of fucking you over after the DRM got revoked.

Essentially what they are doing is since the DRM failed they are now going for plan B in their efforts to extort their consumer base. What they are doing is throwing all the xbox ones features behind a pay wall so that they can up the "value" of XBL (code for price rise in the future) and at the same time force your hand to buy xbl anyways.

Gotta love these guys.
