Live Microtransactions Just Unlocking Stuff You Already Own?
Game|Life points us to this interesting NeoGAF thread wherein a particularly investigative forumer has discovered that a number of Xbox Live paid downloads are exactly the same size - 108KB each.

What's the big deal? Well, chances are that the download you're paying for isn't bonus content at all, but a "key" to unlock content already on your friggin' game. You know, the one you just paid $60 for.

Is this the future of "downloadable" content? Vote with your microsoft points: don't pay for something you've already bought.
