In this kind of industry, if a rumor keeps popping up, time and time again and isnt disproved then it's most likely true, it sounds completely shit, and im not sure Microsoft are that oblivious to their consumers wants, i wonder what they are gaining from an always connected console?

well there are some perks for MS. first of all its a way to fight piracy, which is rampant on the 360. another thing is that they would make their console more online oriented, everything is connected, everything uses online, so basically they would make the attatch rate of xbox live gold gold to every console sold much, much higher. it would also open the door for more people buying from their online store since they are already connected and most likely have xbox love gold and already use their credit card for it. another thing is that it gives them more control over the console, which is something that MS seems to love to do lately.
