Microsoft will offer Xbox Live refunds after making Netflix and other apps free

Microsoft announced yesterday that it will finally allow all Xbox owners to stream media apps like Netflix, Hulu Plus, and HBO Go starting in June. For years, watching video content within those popular apps required an Xbox Live Gold subscription. And apparently the company thinks some users were only Gold subscribers for that reason; Microsoft has announced it will offer prorated refunds to any customers that want to bail on the premium service now that they don't need to pay for Netflix twice. - Chris Welch, The Verge
