Xbox Live has to be what makes Xbox financially worthwhile.

17 million is massive. The X1 appeals to core gamers so that subscription number should remain high in the coming years.

 no it does not, sales show that pretty blatantly. 

The subs will drop like a rock due to low sales. 

You obviously don't what a core gamer is. The software sales show the X1 audience is primarily core gamers.

Go do a little research if you don't understand.

Indeed this is true. Many are unaware that the Xbox platforms also have a very healthy attach rate.

The subs will not drop like a rock due to low sales but there still should be less gold subscribers on the X1 at its peak compared to the 360 since you only need one gold account per console.
