It's is interesting to think they would raise their prices for Xbox live membership cards at the same time they decided to redo the Xbox dashboard. The new dashboard, although staying true to their new style seen in the windows 8 beta and their mobile phone software it is proving vastly more useful in their own advertising Campaign. Honestly as an avid Xbox 360 gamer and user of windows I enjoy the product but am disappointed that a service I pay 60 dollars a year to maintain is still trying to squeeze money out of my pockets. Even PSN limits their advertising to minimum and that is a free service, I would like to see the next update fix some of my own personal concerns and allow gamers to focus on the sole purpose for the console, gaming.

The Question is why we as a society have not moved to cheaper,less damaging, and possibly stronger thorium reactors.
