What am I talking about? THESE THINGS ADD UP. If the Xbox is constantly downloading updates to games or whatever at night, that is a problem if it can't be fully turned off.

Unplug it?
Configure the settings so it doesn't auto-update?

This.

Or, like I said, quit complaining about your loss of $3-5 per year from leaving your Xbox on to download updates and whatnot. Btw, PS4 has this too.

You are for some reason adding in the costs of leaving all your much bigger appliances and power drawing devices with the Xbox which I do not understand. The Xbox being left on and your Fridge, Dishwasher, Microwave, TV, Radio, etc are completely unrelated. You don't need to leave those devices on to keep your Xbox on, last I checked
