Yes, you pay money, but that's Microsoft's decision, the company that runs the Xbox. The very company that runs the console is 'screwing' over all their customers by making them pay. That is Microsoft's decision, and solely Microsoft's decision. Activision is not telling Microsoft how to distribute DLC, they are doing it themselves. However, Activision is telling Sony and Nintento that they will get the DLC late, and it is completely out of their control. That is where all the complaints come from. Nobody want's a third party running their own product, gamers of each console want the company who makes it to decide what to do with it, and will rejoice or reject when the company does things, then the company will listen, and hopefully adjust. Here is where the problem is: an outside company is putting their nose where it has no business, not only is that cause for anger, but they are supposed to be neutral as well, which they are not. Can't you see the difference? It is all Microsoft's business to run their own product, but the PS3, PC and Wii are not Activision's products, so why are they telling the companies who run them that they have to do certain things to their consoles? That is why people complain, it is completely justified.
