Question Market Place Points? XBOX Live

**Note: Searched before posts as to not waste server space.


So far Loving my 360...but I want to DL some stuff from the Market Place and I do not want to have to go to the store to purchase a Points Card. Is there a way to go to Micro$oft XBOX.com and purchase points logged in under your Gamer Tag and have them be in your Live account, readily accessable?

I appreciate the Assist?

D00D!
I gotta be blind...have spent 20 minutes going back and forth through all of the blades and marketplace!

Where in the HECK do you buy them at from XBOX live?

Jeesh.....

Since they make money from it - you would think they would slap it right in your face and not burry it!

I have still not found it.

Not true.

At least according to MS and IGN it isn't.

"Microsoft Points are a totally different entity, since you in no way earn them through playing games. Instead, you need to purchase Microsoft Points to buy extra content, demos, themes, and Xbox Live Arcade games on the Xbox 360 Marketplace. As of right now, your gamer score and Microsoft Points are totally separate. However, wouldn't it be cool if your gamer score were able to give you more than bragging rights? In other words, do you want free stuff for being good at games? Of course you do. Everybody likes free stuff."

not true, but that would be sweet. you should get like 50 free marketplace points for every 1000 gamerscore points or something along those lines.
