to help this process....

i just started on my 3rd console. The first one could never go longer than an hour without saying disc scratch or dirty disc. The console was out in the open with lots of air and sat horizontal but it would scratch games, especially the sports games, mlb 2k7 in paticular. I called MS and the tech wanted me to sit on the phone for an hour and play a game until it messed up. I told her that was absurd and asked her what that would do, she told me she wouldnt take my console back unless I did that first. She also refused to refund me money for the game if i sent it to show the scratching. Why cant they refund me?...sony did with the ps2. I told her to eff off and took it to best buy because i had a 2 year replacement warranty. Best buy replaced it and I paid 65 dollars for another 2 yr replacement plan. That was in January. A few days ago, my 2nd console started messing up again. It was making a grinding noise and scratching disc. I let it sit for a few hours and when i put a game back in, it said disc unreadable on every game i put in. I took it back to best buy and got my 3rd console and paid another 65 dollars for a 2 year warranty as Im sure this console will end up going belly up.

So I spent 400 for the console, and 65x3 for warranties for a grand total of 595. Plus another 65 dollars for the mlb 2k7 game that was ruined making it 660 all together. Hope this helps...MS is exactly whats wrong with American business today.

as for the best buy warranty....you have to buy a new warranty for every console...its not a 2 year exchange it every time it breaks warranty. you have to spend 59.99 every time u have to get a new one. So my point to this whole thing is...dont put your hdd back in the box...and then when you get the new console with hdd...sell the new hdd on ebay and make your 59.99 back. 2x now I have taken a 360 back and they have never asked about the hdd.

Man you should make public this thing, why not tell the media, newspapers and stuff. Make an scandal for your integrity and all the others who have been silenced.
