    Microsoft believes it can, and ought to, make changes to the Xbox Live interface. While the Marketplace and general Live interface was designed, maybe, for a couple hundred items, there’s now more than 17,000. Too confusing, too cluttered for the average consumer.

    Basically, Microsoft is looking to re-organize the way XBL is laid out. How that happens, when that happens—in time for the expected Fall update?—remains to be seen.

    And yes, to a point I’d agree with Microsoft. The constant scrolling, going from page to page, doesn’t exactly make looking for a new (free) picture set or whatever all that engaging.
