    I love the xbox360, it's a phenominal tool. Here are some suggestions for improving the Xbox live program. I'd rather just spend my free time soley on the Xbox live socially, than getting on the net.
  1. Allow users to recieve achievements for using Netflix.
  2. Update the player profile so it's more interactive like myspace or facebook.
  3. When you play a game demo or view a movie, allow the user to comment like a youtube video.
  4. Make an announcement if there will be downloads available for a game before they release them, I already traded my copy of Fallout 3, and now they have all these downloads, and I'm not going to purchase the game again! OR allow the user to burn the game to the hard drive, so you only have to run the new game updates in order to play it. ( not require the original game disc )
