I was arguing that it wasn't fact that 360 and MS catered to indies more.

Many devs preferred the PS3 because they felt it was easier to deal with Sony and get their games released.

I think XBL Indie Games and XBL Arcade are two different things on the 360.

It's stupid easy to release a game to the Indie Games program. The problem is it doesn't get as much promotion and the market is also flooded with garbage. Both make it difficult to get noticed. HowTo FAQ

The developers that are bitching about Microsoft being difficult to deal with are talking about releasing to the XBL Arcade. Microsoft is much more selective and more hands on with developers that want to release games on the Arcade. They're involved in testing/localization/ratings/certification/etc. There are contract negotiations and a lot of other complicated procedures. It's a more strenuous process than the Indie Games which are peer-reviewed and have a pre-determined revenue share.
