Not really necessary. If they can do it and i just pay the $80 difference i suppose i'd do it, but i still haven't used even half of my HDD and i have 20 360 games. I'm good. :)

They'll probably will have a deal like send in a premium and $100 or a core and $200 and you can trade up for an Elite. Either way I could care less about the elite, my HDTV's don't have HDMI and I don't even fill up a 20gig HDD.

If they come up with somekind of trade-in offer I might do it, but if not, my 360 right now is enough.

Of course you wouldn't use the entire HDD space if you only save your games. It's really for music/ demos. On my 360 I have alot of demos that I need to delete I have barely any memory. On my PS3 I still have 30 gigs after all the music and pictures I copied form my external HDD and installing Linux Yellow Dog (about 12 gigs)

There is no way MS is going to take the loss of refunding Millions of premium 360's at full value.  + you have to remember that many people have a gotten a good years + use out of the 360.

Actually the 120gig HDD is more for downloading movies off XBL (as in full length feature films and TV shows) and IPTV. If you have a media center PC or download windows media connect to your PC you can connect your PC to your 360 and stream music, video's, pics etc. And I don't know about you but I only keep demos for a couple of days usually.

So delete the demos and have the space back. What's the point of keeping a demo? When you delete it you can go and download it again and it downloads instantly because you have already downloaded it once. I download demos as well, all the time...and then i delete them when i'm done. ;)

Even when considering HD movies: When the rental period is over, you delete it. It's not that tough, it's really logical.

As for music, i have a ton of music on my HDD and it barely takes any space whatsoever. I don't know how much music you have on it...but mine doesn't take up much room at all.

THe only thing that interests me even slightly is the larger HD. Otherwise, component looks fine, and aesthetically I could really give a crap if my 360 was hot pink.

Yea I forgot about the IPTV. But how many 360 owners will actually use IPTV when TiVo is so popular and dominant?

My lil bro plays them and when I have company they can get right into a demo and play. I never complained about the demos. I never said anything bad about renting movies over Live, whats your point? And I even said that I needed to delete the demos.

360 owners who don't have TiVo? That and people who want to be able to download a TV show with IPTV and put it on their PC or iPod or whatever they have.
