hmm from what i understand..the main issue here is just the regional downloads thingy. as usual, the very selfish americans started up the video marketplace and we all know what happens when we deal with the showbusiness industry. we have all that regional agreements thingy and bla bla bla.

so now, i truly believe that our multiple accounts won't be 'banned' or 'deleted' per se. we'll just have problems downloading stuff from other regions. specifically (and this is where i pray continuously; praying that it's ONLY) movies and videos which were newly introduced. so for accounts with SG addresses, we'll probably be safe since a) asian regions have no video on demand yet and b) if MS has a heart, our IP is categorized under Asian/SG. Dunno bout that last one though.

All i'm hoping and praying now is that this only affects regional copyrighted stuff, mainly the videos/movies (which are the main thing thats causing the fuss right now), but doesn't affect other downloads such as XBLA, demos, or anything other than videos/movies.

if above is true, then i'm cool with not getting to download movies on american MP. their loss anyway. it's not like we're not paying it if we download it. they do this to us, we still have a free alternative anyway to get those movies and watch it via MCE. right guys?

so there; just don't BAN or DELETE the accounts, ONLY block videos/movie downloads and i think we should be doing just fine.

even if MS wants to say m'sia has a high rate of piracy, so no LIVE for us - it's just not fair. After the Fall update we should all know it's risky to have a modded console entering LIVE anyway. So, pirates = no LIVE = no downloads. Only the originals get the full LIVE features, just like it was meant to be. So, why the fuss? U were already on the right track MS so please stay that way.

soo..where do we voice it out? any official channel? c'mon people! we pay what we want to play! we deserve and hae the rights to be heard!

well like i said before, if they don't block us from downloading stuff OTHER than videos/movies from other than Asian MP, i'm fine by that.

From what i read it seems that you'll posibbly get a warning saying that "you are not allowed to download this content" or something in the likes of it.

if they don't kacau game-related stuff, i don't mind then.

and well, it's not MS's fault fully..it's the strict copyright stuff from the video industry that forced MS to do this. if MS don't oblige to the copyright matters, MS lose out on deal, MS no richer. simple as that.

well from what i read, it just covers the tv/movie downloads..cos these are the ones that have regional copyright protection issues, and not demos/game related stuff.

and from what unusual just said, this seems to be true.
