Bad move for M$
iam canceling my live account,ASAP
and when people start doing the same
M$ will lose

I might have to too. But I did pay for a years worth just a few months ago, so I don't have to pay again until 9 months from now. So it won't really hurt MS all that much.

But fuck this is lame.

This information really needs some foundation to it. How did they get this information? Etc.

I know one thing having your old original hard drive packed away would be a good idea to put it back in if you didnt already but the 3.0 dash hasnt come out yet now has it. maybe there just running the same code they did for the past dash up date its probably something smartXX found thats been happening for awhile now

Cancelling will do nothing if you've already paid for it.

Hopefully Xlink will fill up now.  Glad I never got Live.

*Well, kept it anyways.

i thought if u cancel in the middle of the year after paying ur 50 u get credit back for the months u didnt get?

LOL

Nope. That is how it works. You pay for a year, it's your choice whether you want to play on Live, don't play on Live, or cancel it. There is no credit for dropping out of the contract

Exactly , I take everything that comes from smartxx with a pinch of salt.

I think we have the most gullible members on this board..

Go cancel Live, switch to PS2, etc. all because of a few lines you read. Until there is some real concrete information about this, I won't be making any moves yet.

If this is true i cant see what logical sense it would make for M$ to ban for a larger HD.  They still get your sub money from your account. And you have to use retail games to play on live.If they banned us we would prob not renew our sub or have much reason to buy retail originals. This would make there online gaming market percentage drop. Which is one thing they like to brag about. Or you would have to buy a second box, making sales go up slightly, but not enough to make the box statistics look any better so i cant see what is to be gained by doing this. Any one have a thought on this.

How did they get this?

by analysing the checks xbox live does ... that's why they included the full disassembly code.
