My guess is this David Dennis guy is just a horrible PR person. "Next few months". ROFL. There's no way it's hitting $100/year. Microsoft would be fools if they tried to pull that kind of stunt. I can understand why they made xbox live gold into a paid system but if they double the fee, that's just ridiculous.

And I agree about the overpriced accessories. Those hard drives and wi-fi adapters are ridiculously priced. And they should also reduce the charger kit price.

well there is some worry with gamer's because of some of the recent choices that Microsoft has taken:

one of which:

example:

Don’t use unauthorized Xbox 360 Storage Devices

When Preview Program members start receiving the Xbox 360 system update next week, one of the changes is that unauthorized Memory Units will no longer work with the Xbox 360. If you’ve moved your profile or saved games onto one to “back it up,” you’d better move it back onto an authorized Xbox 360 storage device prior to taking the update. If you continue to use an unauthorized Memory Unit after the update, you will not be able to access your stored profile or saved games. 

If you need help identifying officially licensed Xbox 360 storage devices or accessories you can read more about the licensed accessories program on Xbox.com
