If you don't want to pay it then don't pay it.
Skeeuk you have a PS3 also (which i can see you prefer by a mile) so ofcourse you won't pay for Live because you prefer what Sony has to offer.
But for me i have enjoyed Xbox live for over 3 years and although i wouldn't mind if it was free, i have found it to be a small price to pay for my online gaming needs.
