The mistake's been pointed out for me once already elsewhere, but that doesn't make it less wrong. This renforces that. Thanks.

...Say. As long as you're over here, maybe you can offer a bit of help. I've been eyeing an Xbox, because I clearly don't have enough to do gamewise. (Also because I've been looking at Crimson Skies and Panzer Dragoon Orta with deep heartfelt longing for the last year and a half or so, but that's beside the point.) Is a Live account worth maintaining even if I'm not going to use it that often, for game updates and whatnot? Are Live-only content updates common or frequently seen as required?

I know nothing of this console, so I'm a little baffled now that I'm starting to pick up interest.
