When Xbox Live launched, it threw open the international playground doors of online gaming. The subscription-based service allows players to play games with or against other Xbox Live players around the world via the net.

More than three million gamers have now spent two billion hours on the Xbox live network, playing games with friends around the world and downloading more than 50 million pieces of gaming and entertainment content from the Xbox Live marketplace.

Xbox live was relaunched in 2005, with support for the Xbox 360, and is currently available in 29 countries.

    Need to update the BT Business Units:

    BT Internal Business Units changed in 2007: BT Exact more or less equates now to BT Design, the old BT Wholesale is now labelled BT Operate; the new BT Wholesale is now about wholesaling and is the smallest internal unit. BT Retail and BT Global Services remain pretty much as before.
