yes but this doesn't change the fact that only an idiot wouldn't resign this subscription if he wouldn't get a nextbox or so and would like to have one with this kind of contract. hell you can make this contract and resign from this the same day. that's what i do here with our pay-tv. i signed a subscription and resigned that at the same day. one month before the contract ends i will get a new offer and I can sign a new contract then. if not, everything ends like i planed it at the day i made the contract.

so i still don't get where the scam is and why we should talk about this if this is just an option you could use if you would like. what does this have to do with what we are talking about? a two year subscription which will end after two years if you resign from it and how much the costs will be.

I was only trying to help you understand the orginal post you quoted and what he was referring to with the contract continuing. It seemed you thought it would fully shut off automatically after the 2 years. I don't think I said it was a scam, just that many people would leave it on without realizing they may be paying more for the same thing.

he was talking about a scam and he sounded like "you have to pay the $15 if you wish to play with the console any longer". like he didn't know that you don't have to do it to play some more years with the console online. otherwise i don't understand this post:

"No one is even mentioning the fact that anyone gullible enough to buy into this new bundle would most likely go over the two-year subscription. So add in extra years of $15/mo. and you end up with a scam. It's not a good deal at the initial 2-year period, and beyond that you'd just be making monthly donations to Microsoft. If you enjoy having money taken from you, then it's the deal of the century! :)"

doesn't he sound like you have to pay 15 bucks every month after the two years to play any longer?
