I'd start a company up were we house Lan parties... make a 10 room building that can house up to 20 people a room and just host lan parties for anyone and everyone.

I'd put $5M in the bank, let the interest build for a while and live the way I am now.
Similar but I did some checking around a few years back and found if I put $1M in an acount unable to touch it, just the interest I would have gotten about $60K a year (at the available interest rates). I'd probably work part time (I could never not work) and just enjoy life.

On Topic:
He has the option to get the disc replaced (unless something has changed that I'm not aware of). He has no case. If MS said you bought it you deal with it, then he would have a case. People just need to realize MS doesn't mean quality.

Id say just get the disc replaced. Jeez $5M for a scratched disc? Does that mean I can sue Budweiser for all the ugly women I slept with? There is no warning on the can there:p

M$ said that they would replace it... I just don't see the point in this.. yeah, the 70 dollar thing he just bought was scratched, but if the company is going to give you a replacement then that means they are doing their part... Every time I've gotten a game that sounded like it wasn't on the holder, I went to pay for it and opened it right there with them to check. Once it happened that it was scratched but they gave me a new one... Whats the big fuss?

American butcher: "OUCH! I just cut my finger on this knife!"
Customer: " I Know! Why dont you sue the company that makes the knife for not telling you its sharp!"
Butcher: "YEAHH!"

/slaps all participating fictional characters with a shovel for their insane stupidity.
