Ah, Dirty, you mentioned me by name. I'm touched. 
I do find it funny how people are reacting as if this anonymously leaked email is somehow more credible than the leaks we got about always online, just because it's positive for the NeXbox. Of course, the previous rumors were from the same sources who were 100% right about the PS4, which does at least add to their credibility.
Now, I'm not saying this is fake, since it could very well be true. And if it is, it would seem all the backlash has caused MS to change its course on the always online subject. As of now, there are two other things MS needs to address. Whether they are continuing on a more casual path, like they have with the 360 for the past ~3 years. And if they will block used games.
I suppose we'll know all soon enough.
