10 reasons are hard to find, but I just list all I can think of
Thats all I can think of right now. Okay, 3 and 4 are not things I hate, but it would be great for MS and the customer to do it.
Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
One reason to dislike the 360 is it has allot of hardware issues other than that it is a great console.

My only complaints on 360 as a console would be the noise/heat (better now but still too loud/hot for my tastes), the power brick and the general worry (that MS brought on themselves) about reliability.
Other than that its a very good games console. RROD seems to be fading, so hopefully the next stop is even quieter and cooler.
On a personal note I don't like its approach to having separate WiFi, custom HDD, etc. but that is more of a preference than anything quantitative about the console itself. Many I'm sure prefer that approach.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
My X360 makes a lot of noice, it feels like rufly half of the time the fan spins on maximum speed. Are newer X360 models more silent?
1. One thing I will always think is stupid and greedy of Microsoft is that you have to pay for Live for each profile on the same system. I'm not big on the idea of having to pay for online at all but I can live with it. However, if you have multiple people playing on the same console and all wanting to play online, I think it's dumb each player would need to pay for Live on their profile.
2. Their customer service is a joke. While I enjoy my new Xbox 360, I'd have serious thoughts about not buying their next console in the future. I also won't buy any games for full price either as well.
3. I think it's outrageous that their wireless adapter is so expensive. Although this doesn't affect me though since I just use the ethernet cable and don't know why anyone else wouldn't as long as they could do it. To me, it's stupid not to unless you couldn't for some reason.
4. Too many FPS games. Other than Halo, Call Of Duty, a couple others, they're all a dime a dozen.
And....that's it, I think. I've had the system for a few months and I've been pretty happy with it. I've liked the few games I've bought so far a lot. The graphics still impress me (Madden, Resident Evil 5, etc) and I really like gamer points and seeing what you're friends are up to and what they've done along with the fact how easy it is to connect with people and find your friends. Hopefully Nintendo learns from this with their next system and implements something similar.
I'll come up with something better eventually...
I love my XBOX 360 except I do not use LIVE! because I do not believe in paying for online services. I kind of want to get the new red one and give this one to my friend but I'm wrapped up in Killzone 2 right now :)

I always keep my sound system way up so I never notice this.
I can't think of 10 but some things I don't like include-
1. RROD
2. DRE, disc related problems
3. Paying for XBL Gold. It's a rip-off, I don't care what anyone says.
4. MS's lack of 1st party games/developers. Partly why the 2009 lineup is looking quite sparse at the moment.
5. It's too noisy.
6. Having to use batteries. And there's no message that pops up on screen to warn you when the battery is about to run out. Having to buy the play and charge kit seperately sucks.
7. No built in wifi, the adapter is quite expensive.
^Still a great machine though, it just has flaws like any other console.

3. Fair enough, I and many others would rather pay for a good service we use
5. Install to HDD and in my case its quieter than my PS3
6. Although there is no message on screen, when the batteries are getting low the guide button LED's start to cyle warning you. I've never ran out of battery power while playing.
Rest of your points were justified quite rightly. I only highlighted 5 & 6 to add balance that it isn't always the case. Point 3 was just differentiating my view to yours on the subject.
