A free discount card for Xbox live subscribers.

Wow.... just.... wow....

I never would have thought I would see the day MS would make this.

Xbox needs to know what you buy so they can figure out how much to charge for product placement in the games. :wink:

Too bad I'm on a lifetime boycott of Ticketmaster and McDonald's, along with the fact that I've never heard of the other two.

Cambridge Soundworks make some nice kit. I have one of their DVD players.

I want to buy something - at a card-based discount, always lame - with a card clearly emblazoned with my 'gamer tag'. C4pT41n RuLzzz0R demands his 50c discount! :D
