... is one of the many assumptions of Gerald from Gamespy :
"Microsoft is gearing up for a big presence at E3 which will completely transform how people think about home entertainment," says Mattrick. "We're excited about the momentum that is building in the industry in anticipation of our June 1st media briefing, which will kick off E3 in blockbuster style.""

There's no better way to celebrate such a vague announcement than with outlandish and completely baseless speculation. Let's throw some crazy ideas out there and see if any stick. Possible headlines coming out of this briefing include:
"Microsoft Unveils Adults-Only channel." This seedy section of Xbox Live specializes in M-rated games and adult-oriented video content. Sadly, Microsoft then censors this content, which turns Xbox Live 21+ into a joke.
"Microsoft and Netflix Partner to Provide Full Catalog on Xbox Live." MS puts up the money and technology necessary to stream HD-quality video of Netflix's entire DVD catalog, and Microsoft wins this generation outright. Please, please, please happen.
"Microsoft Announces Partnership with Sony." Future Xbox 360 hardware will come equipped with a Blu-ray drive, and in exchange Sony gets an online gaming platform that actually works. It'll never happen.
"Xbox Live Arcade Comes to Zune." What's a Zune, you ask? Well you see, a long time ago..."

Was this an attempt to make PSN look bad??
Because I've been playing CoD4, Socom, LBP, CoD5, Burnout Paradise, Tekken5, and even Crash Commando online for quite sometime on PSN. Didn't cost me any subscription either.
