It looks like Sony couldn't react fast enough with releasing their PlayStation Rewards program that is currently in beta - Microsoft has beaten them to the punch with their own reward program called the "X-Box Live Rewards". I think it's great that all three console makers have their own little perks for basically ecounraging us to do the things that we are already doing with these consoles like, specifically for this program, renewing the Live subscription or buying new games to play. The cool thing about this particular reward program is that you are rewarded with Microsoft Points that can be used to purchase items from the Live Marketplace. The Netflix activation reward is actually pretty nice - netting you a whopping 100 Microsoft Points - but I wonder if this still applies to those who already have the service activated on the console. I have just registered for the program but it will take up to 36 hours for the reward profile to get finalized so I am not seeing anything on the rewards page as of yet. If you have an X-Box 360 and live in the US or UK, you can click here to visit the official reward website and sign up for the free program.
It will take forever to save up for a nice purchase but at least we are getting something back.
