[Am-info] Some thoughts on XBox Live

[Sujal Shah]

Well, I won't buy one either, and I really am a game fan.  Live looks 
good, I'll be honest.

The fact is that most consumers will go where the games are.  And they 
seem to be slowly but surely executing on this.  And, most game 
companies are now savvy enough to make most major titles available on 
all the various consoles.

I don't think consumers have any problems trusting Microsoft, 
especially not in the XBox market.   It's important to understand that 
this really is a stepping stone.  If you want to see the next "browser" 
battle, this is it.
