Let me think... maybe because of games? Duh... Also, entertaiment features too very nice addon. Don't care about all this drm stuff. Google read your mail, steam and android/iphone don't allow any resells either. Internet check, well, how exactly this was bad for SImCity and Diable 3 sales (another fanboyism backslash aside)? Dont you think your ipad kinda useless without it too?

Yep, games are good, as are the entertainment features.
With regards to the DRM, Xbox does allow the sale of licenses so that's a plus there, even if it is a monopoly from MS. But don't you think that physical discs should not be treated in the same way as digital download content? Also steam is quite different to Microsofts solution, both have advantages and disadvantages. But in this case i'd say that steam has a better solution than MS due to the fact it's not a monopoly.
Internet checks did affect sim city, and with ubisoft gamers were able to convince them to do a uturn. The online check is only there because of the problem of physical discs being a license. So do you think it'd be better if Microsoft went digital download only? Because otherwise i'd say the online check is more of a hinderance for people who are buying the Xbox with the mindset that they're going to buy disc based content only. Because they would likely expect to be able to play their discs without an internet connection.
