Xbox Live tops 1 million mark

Microsoft announced that Xbox Live surpassed one million subscribers last week—and in record time.  Live reached the milestone three times faster than other significant subscriber-based services, including HBO and AOL.  Robbie Bach, Sen. VP of the Home & Ent. Division and Chief Xbox Officer boasts, "Consumers are clearly choosing Xbox Live online video games as the new digital entertainment nirvana."  I don't know if we'd go as far as to claim Live is your ticket to freedom from attachment and an end to suffering, but it's certainly a damn good time.  And you can bet Microsoft is anticipating numbers to skyrocket even further this fall with EA jumping on board, and need I mention... Halo 2.  Check out the link below for some compelling statistics.
