‘Modern Warfare 2’ on a pirate site! Microsoft bans XBox-Live players again

Gamers who have altered their consoles cannot  use  Microsoft’s gaming service anymore

“It’s oh-so enticing: You find a copy of a brand-new game like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on a pirate site and the temptation to download it is too strong.”

Report: Microsoft bans 1 million Xbox Live players

The timing of the statement coincides with the release this week of “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2,” a highly anticipated Xbox 360 game. The game’s release means big sales — but also sales of pirated copies, which are illegal.

Microsoft said Wednesday

“All consumers should know that piracy is illegal and that modifying their Xbox 360 console violates the Xbox Live terms of use, will void their warranty and result in a ban from Xbox Live,”

Again has Microsoft banned a big huge amount of 600,000 – 1,000,000 XBox-Live user.

Is the XBox Live ban justifiable?
