There is a psychological hook attached to the price of Xbox Live. It is seen as synonymous with quality. If they dropped that there would be a significant drop in belief that Live was ever worth the money. Microsoft wouldnt fund it as heavily as they do as well, which would dramatically change the face of updates. Xbox Live quality updates are as frequent as Sony getting quality games. It's pretty high.
