This happens way too often now. It's a paid service, so why is it happening. I know stuff happens, but this is like the second time this Year.

Titanium This was really annoying. Games wouldn't work, my downloads wouldn't show up. I guess that was a time for a break.

dnasty239 No you can't


If you pay $500 for a PC it'll be way more powerful, don't talk about something that you don't understand.


I was referring to Xbox1 and no you couldn't make a of more powerful for $500

Reading the comments, I'm seeing complaining about the paid service of XBL. Take it this way. A ONE year subscription of Xbox Live Gold is $60 if I remember correctly. $60 divided by 12 is $5 a month. $5 is money you could make in a day or two by doing some street performances in a place like New York.
