Can you get Cable in your area ? If so get that instead and that will work with Xbox live.

I think you do need a BT line to have ADSL.

Yeah £40 isnt that much for 1 years service. Broadband isnt available every where but more places are getting it. Broadband isnt that expensive either. Alot of companies, well ADSL companies are charging less than £25. Some just over the £20 mark. Think that AOL charge £14.99 a month for a normal unmetered 56k modem connection, when I pay £23.48 a month for unmetered 24/7 512K connection. Not much more and so much faster. Everyone is using the internet now, so broadband is going to get cheaper and more accessable.

Yeah £40 is nothing, your getting a 2 free (limited online versions) of Moto GP and Whacked.

Broadband maybe inaccesible few quite a few, buts as Strafex says its soon set to change.

The £40 is nothing, especially considering you get 2 games free with it.

What it comes down to is whether you have broadband access or not, which IS expensive, and inaccessable to some, but that should change in the future...
