Especially when you can get it for only $25 to $30 a year. I'm good until 2012 and I only paid between $25 and $30 a year but getting it when they are on sale.
Just like I only pay $10 to $14 for every 1600 MS points I get. I buy them when they are on sale.
yes yes check everyday for a sale that may happen once every 3 months. Some people like to buy stuff when they want to buy it. Not make it a hobby.
Also you assume everyone is some single loner living in his basement. Even at $25 of you have one account for the parents and they have 3 kids that's 4 XBL gold accounts and that's $100 year even on your bargain hunt. over 6 years that's $600. I could buy 2 more PS3s with that.
No I don't assume a loner. Your average family with a 360 is not going to have four gold accounts. Most will have one or possibly two gold accounts and the rest will be silver accounts.
