I actually feel bad only paying between $35 and $50 a year for Live. All these dudes arguing about the minimal cost of Live when they are spending their money on all kinds of gaming/tech shit. You guys really that broke? Balls deep from MS.......for only $50 a year at the most, now that's a steal.

Posts like this is exactly why you have to pay for Live on the X360 when Microsoft drop the price on the PC. PC gamers didn't think Live was a steal but the other way around. It's the same with paying over a dollar for bottled water. There is no better saleman than one which convinced people to start paying for bottle water. I know someone who is convinced that buying bottled water at Sam Club is a deal.  I'm thinking no it's not.

As long as people will pay a dollar plus for water then it crazy to stop selling it. The same with Mircosoft with Live.

Value is relative.  I would never shop at JCrew, but some do.  The margins are insane and I find no value in buying anything from there.  Once again, value is relative.
