Microsoft is really keen on you spending cash to purchase an Xbox One, the sweeten up the deal Microsoft is giving all Xbox Live users free unlimited cloud storage for their Xbox One gaming data. Previous generation Xbox users had to subscribe to an Xbox Live Gold account to be able to make use of this feature.

Are they trying to make people buy this Console?

Now i'm not a console gamer myself, but this Always Kinect thing is what would prevent me from buying it.

xboxlive $60 per year
Online purchases of games, possibly $300
TV Services like channel subbing and netflix etc...maybe another $100, certainly $50

So, let's say $300 low end and $500 tops

If they sell 1 million units in year one, their year two revenue will be $300 million at the low and half a billion at the top end.

The closer and faster they get to $1 bill revenue per annum the better, and I reckon they probably got their eye on a ten million installed userbase within 3 years. Additionally, I strongly suspect they did a lot of deals with content providers for the 'teeveeteeveeteevee' element of the system, whointurn would have deals with advertisers.

Everyone is trying to get a slice of that money, especially Apple - but with this kind of potential money flying about, yah, I totally get why M$ will do anygodamnthang to get us to tilt our heads to one side so everyone can sink their teeth into us.

Hah assuming this cloud storage has restrictions on file types, you could create some 1TB archive file, rename it as a .avi, and upload it to the cloud.
