Xbox Live: Price increasing to $59.99/year

It was just announced that Microsoft will be increasing the regular Xbox Live subscription cost by 20% to $59.99/year starting on November 1, 2010.  If you renew before then, you can avoid the increase for another year. I previously posted a special at Amazon.com for just $34.99 which I still think is the most efficient way of renewing your subscription.  That special is over, but it's worthwhile to keep your eyes open for sales like that.
