Can't really say I blame you, but from a business standpoint MS wants to make as much money as possible
- Charge yearly for Live
- Attract people to buying NEW games, used market only gave developers money VIA DLC

I feel for the people who can't get broadband internet and/or live in a region that has unstable internet. Hurricane season is no joke, even in CT I lost power for a week and with a generator I still would have been SOL.

I have no issue with paying for live, and would continue to do so 

I have no issue buying new games, Many of my gam,es are pre-order and special editions,  I only have a handful of used games in my collection, most were bought to give a series i was unsure about a test, most of them ended up with me buying the series at full new price, other used games are ones i have been unable to buy new, either i missed them when they came out or it was back when i had no money and was not buying games, by the time i had money to spare only used copies to be found (futurama XB is impossible to find, bought it from a Block Buster when it closed)

I Would pay more for most games up front if it kept restrictions off it, heck i would pay more not to have to use season passes or just to have right to all dlc upfront even if that means 150 buck games in some cases

I just don't see where MS thinks it stands to gain when it dismisses people who bought almost 100 new games for their consoles (it might be over 100 by the time the 360 ends new games )
