Question:
Would developers of mods for 360 and GFW games be able to get a kickback directly per download of their content, or is the affiliate the XLSP approved developer?
Either way if this 7.5% is applicable to user created content, at hundreds of downloads per item and being paid back in Microsoft Points/Cash money any items sold for one hundred or more MP over Xbox Live would seem to be profitable even at 7.5% (depending on the amount of work involved in user created mods).
edit: ah.. Up to 7.5% I doubt any single user create item would move 50K per month. *sigh 5% is still 'something'. Although I wouldn't call it a real incentive to develop more software for Microsoft to earn money off of.
