Is it possible to change the email address your account uses?

Reason is i want to change it so i can have my msn set up on live....

the only problem i can think of is that i originally set up an account with this address....

cheers

When they first brought out windows messenger for the 360, loads of people complained that they couldn't change their email address, as they set it up one they didn't use for msn messenger. Then the update in October/November allowed you to change it. I regret doing so. Everytime I turn on my 360 I get bombarded with IM's from friends who do not know I'm on the 360. I even bought a cheapy £9 USB keyboard so I could type better to them, but still it interupts you too much so I changed my email address back now frown

So turn off the option that automatically signs you into MSN when you start up your 360. Problem solved.

yes - absolutely no point in using the Xbox for MSN unless you don't have a PC.

No, dont think it takes anything to do with DLC as all that stuff is saved on to your HD/Memory Card thing and no, you can't check email on it.

Personally I never use it as it becomes really, really annoying if you are playing at the same time biggrin
