1 million people that won't pay is 1 million people talking good about you vs. 1 million people saying you're a pile of shit now.

And now, if people know MS will kick you off, they may not go buy the xbox at all. So they WILL lose out on that too.

Really stupid move overall... that's why games have expansions, at least get the $50 in the door.
These people were moding their XBoxs meaning they probably didnt buy the game or the expansion. They were giving their $5 a month to XBox for the Live subscription. Since XBox, or most gaming systems, do not make much profit on the sale of a system I dont really think they lost much.

I say good for Microsoft
