Your first question is confusing, so to answer your second question, go to the main menu, select start a new game, then select existing ID. This will allow you to play as any of your past characters.
Even though I don't have Xbox Live & would love for it to be free, the service in the marketplace & regulation of Live by Microsoft puts up a good service that other consoles don't have the privilege of. If it were free, more people would be playing online but with no regulation you would get (even more) pre-pubescent kids as well as pedophiles going into chatrooms, etc. Silver offers most of what Live has being extra content, trailers, arcade games, etc. Gold is what you need to play online. So considering that you get a lot from the free Silver account, Xbox Live shouldn't be free.
