Article is poorly translated and it seems to be only in Japan. Japanese paying $1 to unlock TVii features sounds better than Microsoft charging $15-20 for a DVD remote to access the DVD player in the original xbox which could have just used the controller like the PS2 yet was locked due to wanting more money.

$1 to use TVii which is just software using already acquired hardware is such an outrage. Why you have to remind people of non-issues like separate remote purchase required to access basic features that only cost $20.

Physical stuff costs money to produce and distribute

Software just comes out of thin air
