Yeah, I actually had a similar instance regarding Game Pass.
The Series X was my first Xbox ever because I had been a Sony fan all my life, but the launch of the PS5, the supply was non-existent. And the only way I could get a Series X was doing their All Access Pass deal, which was the two-year payment plan that gave you Ultimate alongside it.
I feel like it worked against Microsoft’s favor, because yes, it hooked me on Xbox for two or three years. However, since they forced you to have Game Pass Ultimate along with it, I never purchased any games to get with it. So therefore, when I cancelled my Game Pass subscription at the end of it, I had no reason to turn the console on again.
