    Eh. Bing isn't bad. I actually prefer it for video search.

    I'm pro Google, but benchmarks are showing that Edge could gain some ground in use since it is faster than Chrome, this is even true on Google's own octane benchmark (which they use for benching browsers): http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2493880,00.asp

    MS needs to get more features and bug releases, but this could help them a lot vs what ie became. Competition is a good thing :)

    Anyone else having trouble loading nba.com's new page? I can't seem to load the scroll bar in Chrome, but it works in Edge

    I always run into trouble with the Netflix app, but i put up with it since it gives me surround sound in DD+ while i can't get it through Edge even though i remember it was advertised as the first browser with surround sound. Maybe i'm doing something wrong or need to download some codec?

    He's been shilling Edge for months lmfao.
    I agree that its a very good browser. I also use it for Netflix, but I'm not out here shilling for it. Nor do I have some weird animosity towards Google and Chrome.

    They are just web browsers. People need to chill with the brand loyalty.

    Agreed. Over all, I much prefer searching for everything but videos on google. I like how Bing plays right in the browser with out loading youtube.com etc.

    Although , I only use it at work since that's the default.....

    I thought IE was just a tool to help download Google Chrome?
