Top 25 Windows 8 Apps
Netflix
Why pay for cable when you watch all your favorite shows at your leisure via Netflix? The app for Windows 8 comes with your Netflix membership, so you can watch thousands of TV shows or movies per month for a monthly price of $7.99 (base version). Plus, you can search for titles, browse a huge selection of titles and rate your favorite picks. The coolest part? If you start a movie on one device, the app lets you pick it up on any of your other devices.

Why is it titled “Top 20 Windows 8 Apps” when there are actually 25 apps listed?
Proofread, much?

There are a lot missing (Flixer, Weather, CNN, Metrotube, etc) but it did introduce me to the Wikipedia app that I didn’t know existed.

Thanks for sharing. Personally, as a movie fan, I will introduce my enolsoft video converter for Windows 8, which helps me a lot on video converting between various video formats.

Hardly any of the main ones such as News Rep and Vimeo seem to be available in the UK RT store.

That’s not functionally different from having your chat in one giant full-screen unalterable window – what is this, 1985 (Windows 1.0)?

The popularity of Windows 8 comes from the factor of app building techniques.
By the way, great compiled list of all Windows 8 apps. Thanks for the information.

How much were you paid to write the first sentence?

Every time I pressed a picture for the apps I got a popup asking me to join a subscription list.
It was interesting to see and read you list, but there are other good sites on the internet with equally good articles without that annoying popup… I will most likely read on those sites instead of this site.
Perhaps another google search in the future will take me to this site and hopefully I will forgot about this and hopefully I can read the actual article without frustration, and by doing so I might be more interested in this site.
Just my 2c.
