Xbox Live turns your XBox into a multiplayer gaming and media delivery device. It is widely popular with it's users, and integrates with other services like Netflix. Using XBox Live players can take on their friends down the street, or strangers half a world away. Some popular games include Halo and Madden. XBox Live is the first truly social gaming service of it's kind.

The only negative feedback from users comes from people complaining about the billing policies. This is mostly because of the auto-renewal billing and the fact that you can not cancel on the web (see Cancel Policy below).

To activate your XBox Live account, you need an XBox, an internet connection and a credit card. A step-by-step guide to setting up your XBox live account can be found at EHow.

To cancel XBox Live you must call Microsoft Phone Support. They will likely give you a retention pitch to try and keep you from canceling.
