If you want to do that analogy, it would be "Windows 7 came for free with the computer, but you'd have to go and buy (for example) the Windows Games / Internet Explorer / Windows Media Player (take your pick)". If that were the case: would you? That's what stever is trying to say. If the essence of the service is gifted to you, how many people would actually pay to get that inkling more? |
Hmmmmm....perhaps the analogies weren't on the mark, but the point remains that I DON'T have XBL becuase of online gaming...I rarely EVER multi-player, and while I do believe I am not the norm, I certianly don't think I'm 2% of the audience. Another thing is that when PSN launched...their were only 5.5 million 360s on the market...but somehow, the free play model for PSN didn't negate XBL...
