I've been talking to a few friends on Xbl, and we were talking about the new Xbox Originals for download. Given the majority of 360's are all Pro's, its fair to say then the majority of 360 owners have the 20GB HDD. The 20GB model has only 13GB free out of the box (well it did when I got mine). So after having some profiles, game saves, some Arcade games and DLC, most people have around 10GB free. Think now, we all get some game demos, usually a GB a piece. My younger bro for instance has 4 demos, and has 6GB free. We downloaded Halo 1, which was like 2.3 GB in size or something. Essentially he is going to have a space problem very very soon.
Imagine living is the US and having a Video Marketplace, you'll already be approaching the limits of the HDD with a Movie weighing in at 4 gigs or so.

I think if MS wants to push this market, we need to start letting MS know that we would all like the 120GB HDD, but the pricing point is utterly ridiculous, even by comparason to any model HDD out there, its just way to costly. Maybe MS should consider a 60GB HDD for purchase say at half the price of the 120GB, so say assuming the 120GB is $180 US, then make it $90US. Its allot more easy on the wallet than $180US.

What are your thoughts on this? For me I am not fussed as I sold my Pro, added the difference and bought the Elite purely for the Hard Drive and HDMI. So I have oodles of space, but my concern is for the other 360 owners who will all be facing space issues, and in the other corner I am concerned for MS because people may not use the service because of the space limitations etc. Sure you can DL the games as many times as you like, but, lets face it thats not really economical from a time perspective as well as a cost on most peoples internet plans and or usage allowances.

Thoughts?
