Oh well, as long as WMC extender portion continues to work I will just limp along until a better ecosystem arrives for whole home theater use... might actually have to pick up a Rocku on fire sale for the on demand content I guess...

It would be insanely stupid if them to stop supporting it.

Gold accounts are a cash cow.
Overpriced controllers as well.
And I'd bet the profit margin on the console itself is more than 100% with the lithography having shrunk dramatically since the original 360 and the design simplified to a SoC.
