Those servers can pop up on demand on Azure as VMs... Why not? I actually think Xbox Live will probably be working for those title (if not today, at some point). It is the beauty of the cloud, you do not need to dedicate any hardware.

Has MS given any information about that?

Not to my knowledge and I would be surprised if they do anyway. My point was just to highlight how having to pop-up or 'maintain' one or 100 servers these days means pretty much nothing compared to before where you needed to deal with the hardware etc; this was to awnser your post.

Now if anything is going to block Microsoft from opening up servers, I think it will be more about the login to Live which is completly different now and they would need to probably update their old good Xbox Live backend software for it :) So very unlikely to happen
