1. I dont know about current XBL but with PS+ you stop subscribing you lose the games. 

2. MS only just started doing that. It hasnt been the case for a long time, so what were people paying for prior to that?

They used to pay for just the service.  Ps plus brought in unmatched value.  Tough shit if someone unsubs though.  gaming mustn't be for them because there is no reason to stop subbing if you have the time to play.  

i understand that, but what is the service? is it just to play online? if so why?
