Microsoft says it's 'well within legal rights' to ban consoles

I'm sure that's what they're expecting. Feed the machine more money!

I'm sure half of those banned are defecting.

5 billion intarwebz for you!

Whitten: Xbox Live banning 'a cat and mouse game'

Some people like to protect their investments. Granted, it's only $60, but with some 360 drive grooving discs making them unplayable, people with kids who, even though we keep do our best to keep it out of reach, still manage to eff up a disc when we're not looking for a second.

And yes, I've had my 360 groove several games to a point where, even with the best disc scratch removal service, rendered it unplayable. Here's another $60 for ya!

How about when games are loaned out to friends. You trust them, yet they either manage to 1. Eff up your game in the same manner as a 9 year old with A.D.H.D would or 2. Trade it in for another game? Yep, happened to me. I had to go get another Halo 3: ODST while my so-called friend was enjoying his newly purchased Tekken 6 with trade ins. He did eventually get another copy for me.

You're right, piracy is bad. But some of us hard-working folk, who go out and buy our games also, would like to protect our investment. Don't call all of us pirates. I worked hard to get MW2, and I'll be dammed if my 360 fux it up again.
