So I hear that in order to use the web browser you have to have a Gold subscription.
Paying to use a browser, wow... |

in M$'s eyes they are asking us to PAY to utilize HARDWARE we ALREADY purchased in order to use a SERVICE (internet connection) we ALREADY pay for.... i just feel like M$ thinks they deserve a fair slice of the pie that they have nothing to do with, they just see it across the room and are like, i wanna slice! PS3 doin it right, PC doing in BEST!

seriously, how many people buy a live account just for netflix or IE? i know you have to be a member to use them, but its not its standout feature. the biggest pull for me is the cross game party chats. i know i could have that in a pc as well...but i also enjoy forza4 and some of the arcade games as well as halo series...and its turn it on and play, and my pc is in the living room too, too much hassle either dealing with wires or flaky wireless keyboard and mouse...so yah...whatever

Xbox sucks anyway. They could update live to turn into a roast beef sandwich at 12am and it would still blow.....and not in the good way. Wii is where its at.

It's like any other network. If it's connected to the internet it'll be breached at some point. Hell, even Steam was hacked.

I'm saying that Steam was hacked and user information was stolen.
You should have had an apology from Gaben pop up when your updated Steam about a year or so ago.

Microsoft was also hacked badly, and it actually interfered with my financial well being
