Microsoft to discontinue the Gold Family Pack
Microsoft has confirmed to Joystiq that they have discontinued the popular Gold family pack. What this means for current Family gold pack customers is that their family center settings management suite is still available for them... at this time.
When asked why this bundle which for just $99.99 gave the user four year long gold subscriptions they responded the following:
"We continually evaluate our business focus and work to offer services that make the most sense for our customers and Xbox."

TehYea i agree with you, With the family pack they would spend $100 for a year on 2 account or more accounts but now there probley only going to pay for 1 account, Don't see why they stop offering the gold family pack, The customer was happy & xbox made more moneyAxillary I feel that this isnt fair for the customers because its better to pay for multiple accounts instead of paying for each one of them
yeah thats true /:

USSR I think they were losing money so they discontinued it
A 12 month XBL card cost $50 so 4 of them would be $200 and they're selling 4 years for a $100 I can see why they cut it off.
Yes, but also think of how much it should cost to play on xbox live.....

NaughtyNutsZetaSoulful I never used this pack, not suprised they are closing this.
I never used it either, didn't even know it existed lol.
same here, i just kept renewing the 12-months plan
Well this is obviously geared towards families. If your not a family, it makes sense not to use it
