I still dont get what all the hate is with always "online". So what. I AM always online. Its hardwired to my xbox and I've never unplugged it from the ether net. Does it really matter?

It matters to people who may have spotty connections because they live in rural areas. I can only get shitty DSL that likes to go in and out so if I was unable to even turn on my xbox during one of those times I would be pissed.

I know a lot of people who never use the Internet with their Xbox or ps3. With that said, if it became online only they could easily hook it up to the Internet if they were forced to.
I can't think of one person that would truly not be able to use the system if it was online only. I could see it hurting people in rural areas tho.

Outside of the market issues already meationed, it's over the issue of freedom of choice.
If I want to bring the console somewhere to game, I shouldn't have to worry about there being Internet access for an arbitrary reason.

It's just an unnecessary hassle. With Wi-Fi in every system, it's not as big of a deal. I just don't like DRM in any way, shape, or form. Especially, requiring an internet connection to access the games I've already paid for.
It's just for the "poors" either. When I got my new house, no ISP provided internet until 2.5 months after we moved in. I would have been so pissed if I couldn't even play the games I own on top of no internet and cable.
