Wow those rates are outright stupid. Someone looked at those numbers and decided that was a good idea. Are they braindead or are they hoping for this to fail?

I think they’re hoping to make a profit off of what they’re charging rather than loss leading.

At some point you gotta offer a decent product if you want people to use it, let alone make a profit off it.

To my eye, all of the moves Xbox has made lately is to package up something that someone else can afford to buy off of Microsoft’s hands, and that includes selling them a subscription service that brings in more money than it costs. That’s only conjecture, but it seems to fit.
