This. Sometimes there's an interesting demo for a game I never heard of and want to download.

We pay for Xbox Live. Shouldn't we be able to select "My Xbox" as the default on the dash? 8)

does it matter that much, does it take that much effort to press up once?

No, it's just the fact that I'm forced to look at their ads. Most of the time I have no interest in them.

That is a good point. You shouldn't have to look at ads in a pay-to-use service.

I generally have my Xbox 360 set to go to the Dashboard every time I boot the system up -- this comes in handy if I want to do something system-related (resetting the clock, for example) with a game disc already in the disc drive. I'm not really "picky," though -- I haven't actually "tried" setting my system to play a game automatically, so perhaps I should get around to trying that out at some point.

Dashboard of course, I want to see which of my friends are online and what they're doing before starting a game. And sometimes I like to check the spotlight and the marketplace also for news about games and new videos.

Honestly, if you're gonna complain about a few ads on something, even if you paid $50 a year for it, you've got problems far beyond that.

Okay, well think about this:

For Xbox Live to stay successful, members have to pay for it to stay afloat, unlike PS3/Wii online play.

APART from that, I'm sure the people at Microsoft get paid for all of the ad views they get. It's like they're taking advantage of us.

I have mine on Dashboard too for the aforementioned reasons. However unlike the PS3, and I'm not trying to start a flame war since this is the 360 forum, it pevees me that when you take out a disc and put a new one in it starts the game right away and there is no way to turn that off. If I didn't want to play the new game right away I have to exit out back to the Dashboard.
