They've barely made any improvements to the system since release compared to Microsoft adding features/improvements on an almost monthly basis. The UI for the PS4 is still a steaming hot piece of garbage and even with the inclusion of a player the media capabilities of the system still lag behind the previous generation.
Guess I just don't feel that way. I have no issues really with the PS4 UI and the Media player for streaming from my PC has worked fine.
They did add suspend and resume and also play share.

Aren't a lot of the "features" they added stuff that used to be standard on the 360 and weren't released originally with the Xbone?

Yes, but at least their getting added. Ps4 has yet to add appear offline on psn or notifications when a friend logs in or out. Two highly requested features that the ps3 has.
I don't get the whole console war. The only real difference in the consoles is who you can party up and play with. I hate this generation because it split everyone I've been playing with since xbox/xbox360 days. 1/2 went ps4 and 1/2 went xbox one so now I'm constantly swapping from console to console.
I do think xbox is on to something with Windows 10. I expect the user interface on xbox one to see a big jump in performance once its on the W10 platform.
Any headsets that are fully wireless with Xbox One and support pc/ps4 with dual voice/game sound channels?
Astro A50's are probably the closest ones that come to mind. It's not bluetooth and connects to the controller for voice, but it's adaptable to PS4 and PC. If you have a Kinect, it can be considered fully wireless.

I was leaning toward the a50 but I was hoping to get something fully wireless on all my devices.
With the new features of windows 10 and the Xbox One os overhaul in November I'm sure usb chat support is coming. If they are planning on having the same feel across all devices then a headset that works wirelessly across all devices is expected ( wires? It's 2015!).
Just upgraded my PC to win10 and i have to say the Xbox feature will come in very handy for when the mrs wants to watch something on tv but i'm in the mood to play a game. not sure if the stream will let others see what i'm doing at the same time or not though, gonna play around with the settings a little.
a p. sweet dude Pens win! Pens Win!!! PENS WIN!!!!!

Turtle Beach Stealth Ear Force 800x (or whatever the fuck mouthful of a name it has, just search for Turtle Beach 800x) are totally wireless, but I'm not sure if they're PC/PS4 compatible.

1080p/60fps Game Streaming – You can now stream games from your Xbox One to Windows 10 devices in high-res HD quality at 1080p/60fps. The new streaming capability works best for gamers who have home networks with adequate bandwidth. In the Xbox app on Windows 10, go to Settings > Game Streaming and set the video encoding level to Very High, which will then stream games from your Xbox One to your Windows 10 PC at 1080p and 60fps (frames per second).
Right Click – You can now right-click on one of your friends and select Send Message or Invite to Party to more quickly connect with your friends.
Notifications – Starting today, you can enable or disable notifications for when you are invited to a party or a multiplayer game via Settings > General > Party & Games Invitations.
Recently Played – Now you will see an animated display alternately showing you how many friends have played each game along with the four most recent players. The display will then switch to show a second tile with your last played date, Gamerscore and Achievements percentage complete.
