Why should I be paying the same amount for XBox Live as the US gamers if I'm missing a huge feature? And lets face it, alongside getting late games, hardware etc this takes the cake. I'm holding my account for one more month and then scrapping it. I don't like getting jipped and thats exactly whats happening here.

It's meant to destroy the middle class. :) We’re already in the North American Union with Canada and Mexico, Bush signed it last March with the Presidents of both Canada and Mexico, circumventing the Congress of both USA and Mexico and the Parliament (I think that’s what they use) in Canada.

If they are saying they could do it down the road then they could have had it ready, albeit in a much more limited capacity, for Canada and the UK. As they said securing local content would have bypassed the license issue, while they caught up with the content americans would have right off the bat. But again there we only have so many people excuse does not fly, if you didn't have enough people then I think the solution to that problem is rather evident.
