Microsoft Xbox Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer Yusuf Mehdi: "I think it's fair to say there's a segment of consumers at this show in particular who really pay attention, who are very passionate about all aspects of gaming, and that we listen to closely. In a broader set of community, people don't pay attention to a lot of the details. We've seen it in the research, we've seen it in a lot of the data points."

Sounds to me like he is saying that they will get away with the DRM because most consumers are too ignorant. Do you agree?


NO....What he is saying is that there is a segment of comsumers that they pay attention to...meaning XBLive users...when he says "a broader set of community" he means gamers in general..So no he's not saying that your wrong...


No, you misunderstood it. He was asked about the negative reaction of the attendees of E3 ("this show") towards Xbone's DRM.

Our customers are very important to us." -Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb (10/2013). Note: RRoD was fixed with the Jasper-revision 3 years after the launch of 360
