Ever wonder how well Xbox Live is doing for Microsoft? According to Bloomberg, their online gaming service likely broke the $1 billion revenue mark for the first time in the year that just ended.
Actually, estimates say that they made $1.2 billion last year, even beating out analysts’ estimates. A Goldman Sachs analyst says that their sales for the service were up from $800 million, from the year before. Sales of movie and TV show downloads topped the subscription earnings for the first time.
