I also voted for DLC, in 3/4 years 1 TB HDD will be very cheap, it will be worth to place it inside a console as it saves space, licences, distribution costs, i belive it even can save taxes !

I also believe that using a right DRM metod as iTunes, it can help to fight the piracy and in 3/4 years even me, that live in Colombia, can expect a 4000K or 8000K to download those 25GB games.

How many games do a usual person buys in a console-generation ? I dont think it is more than 30 and that´s enought for 1 TB, also it would be nice an iPod-like distribution where u can transfer all your games from one account to another no matter switching hardware

I live in Venezuela and I don't think it will be that easy here, with the exange rate and adquisitive regulations I see it really hard. Not to mention that the Internet connection here is crap.

 

Though, in 3 or 4 years I would be living in another country so it doesn't bother me that much.

 

You may be right to mention that some countries and markets may not be that good for a DLC-only Xbox, but to be honest, we are a very small portion of the whole global market (4% as i remember, and that including the whole Latinamerica region), besides that we dont buy that much games anyways, the lost for them will be insignificant and the ones that have a credit card or the money to buying the games, would have no problems buying this stuff directly or throught (whatever is written:P) merchandants on Internet.

 

And about the internet connections, well, it depends also on the country, but here we have even got 20.000K for domestic consumers and yes, it is expensive, but in 3/4 years it will be more payable(does that word exists ?:P).

Yeah and the loss of the market would be compensated by the saving in physical materials. By this logic, it's really probable.
