Why does MS try to nickel and dime me?

So I was looking at all the things you could get free with gold (next to nothing) and I noticed that Xbox Music is $10/mo. TEN FU CKING DOLLARS TO LISTEN TO MUSIC. Like are you serious? Pathetic.

  • It's Microsoft. Haven't you figured that out yet. They don't give a f[i]u[/i]ck about their consumers. Just their wallets.

      If you don't want it don't buy it. If you like to be able to listen to different music a lot and you have a windows phone it's probably worth it. If not, it isn't. Why do people get mad at companies for offering services in exchange for money? That's what business is... It's not like they're making you pay for it to play Xbox Live or something.

      • Also; ROYALTY MONEY. That cool new band you heard of that just got the opportunity to put their music on a subscription based platform for other people to listen to which in turn helps expand their brand? Yeah, they need to eat too buddy.

      • Why would you even think about using Xbox music in the first place? You didn't subscribe for it, so technically they're not nickel-and-diming you either.

      • Because you're stupid enough to not rip the music to your Harddrive, or share the music on your computer via the local network and stream it from there to your xbox?

      • It's a $100 for a year of Xbox Music and you still have to pay $60 for Xbox Live Gold.

        Hopefully the new CEO for the Xbox division will change this? I have a topic in the Angry Army Community that lists some things that would put QUALITY content into Xbox Live that should be free with GOLD

      • Well, it's understandable that the Music service needs its own subscription. Question is do you need Gold to then access your music subscription? Because that would be some bullshit.

        • Just hook your ipod in to your speakers or something. I have mine in a dock, or headphones that I put under my turtle beach headphones (then I can hear the game, my music, and still chat to my friends at the same time) ... so much simpler.

        • Why are you using Microsoft's streaming music service anyway? I use my laptop to stream around 8 or so Goth radio stations. That way I get the music I want while still playing my games. And it's completely free. Why pay for iTunes or any other music service when there's the internet?

          • Xbox Live gold is only worth paying for if you want to play online, otherwise your being ripped off

                • Well, you're paying $10 a month to listen to any song you want at any time. CD's and albums on iTunes cost $10-$20 for 10-15 songs. Yeah, Microsoft is totally ripping you off.
