Just because something is only available with a Gold account doesn't mean I'm specifically paying for it. I doubt anyone is buying a X1 specifically for Skype. Its a bonus feature for Gold members. Why are you paying for automatic updates with PSN+? Its free on Xbox. |
Because the 360 doesnt have auto updates, it only updates when you specifically load the game, it doesnt turn on during the night and get your stuff up to date for you.
And your right no one would pay gold for skype, so why put it behind the pay wall, its not behind a pay wall on any none MS hardware which is strange as skype is a MS product.
Why put game recording behind live, when its a hardware feature, its all very strange, without gold you basically get PS2 with better graphics.
The reason these things are behind gold is because they struggle to justify the charge, they dont want to do games for gold permenantly cos it will destroy there profits. Problem is people arent stupid and more and more you see people looking at whats behind gold and asking why.
Yes they should be looking to add more features to Gold, but not things that dont make sence like Skype and Netflix.
