HI. Not to sure how many of you use xbox live.

toss a comment on this if you would like orcon to have some kind of caching system for xbox live like they do with steam.

Would be cool to have some unmeterd content on xbox live.

If you want to put your gamer tag in your comment otherwise just say yes or no and a comment.

Hopfully lots of people reply and orcon take notice.

Thanks

Microsoft doesn't offer ISP caching like Steam does, so I can't see this happening to be honest. (Nor does Sony, so don't expect unmetered PSN either). The Aussie ISPs that offer it do so because they buy bandwidth on the cheap and don't mind losing a bit on people using it, while here in NZ international bandwidth still costs enough that no ISP is going to want to give you any of it free.

Nice idea, and I would definitely support it, but unfortunately very unlikely to happen.
