Fumanchu said: Maybe you're right - maybe they have made $3 billion on LIVE so far (subscriptions + content). I guess the expenditures on the division could soak these up against manufacturing, logistics, labour, parts, maintenance etc. I guess I thought that their profits in their quarterly statements would be higher should they have amassed such a figure.

I honestly don't know where the money goes, safe to say though it is helping Microsoft a lot.
From this year on XBL can make Microsoft $3 billion + a year.
All those subscribers from 2006/2007 would have likely upgraded this new year. (most get their subscriptions around christmas)
AND thats the $25. I live in England and those cards can't be found everywhere, so I just pay mine through the Xbox for full price £39.99 a year.
