Well lets see several months ago they added a 1 week delay on demos to silver accouts to try and make gold more appealing to thoes with out patience. Kinda sad IMO. Dont get me wrong I love my 360 but I really dont see why so many gold users want to defend the price tag MS attaches to P2P gaming. I'll do my online gaming on PC with dedicated servers and more than 16 players thank you very much.(the fault of Devs BTW except for frontlines) I had gold for half a year or so and ended up canceling it because I did not play games online very much certinaly not enough to spend $50 a year for an online match once or twice a month. The vast majority of other features of live are free for a good reason so more money can be made on microtransactions or intrest can be generated by demos.
