 +One noteworthy thing I've noticed. I'm not sure whether it is my sound-card or the cables, but channels, left 
 +and right, were switched despite the coloring of the cables. Instead red-to-red and white-to-white, I had, and have, 
 +to connect red-to-white and white-to-red. Otherwise you'll end up with **switched L <-> R audio channels**.

 +===== Live! and Billing address =====
 +
 +I have to put this slight annoyance up. I have to. While redeeming your code, eg. pre-paid membership card, you have to enter
 +billing address and telephone number. Telephone number. Really? Seriously? Never mind, I've seen this one elsewhere as well. Moving on.
 +Ok, you enter billing address of yours only to find out: //"Entered billing address or post-code do not match with console locale. Please, 
 +enter valid billing address."//. Right! Yes, it is very strange somebody has different locale from their billing address because of, I 
 +don't know, perhaps they've moved. Whatever the reason might be, I see no point in changing it only to please *you*, Microsoft. Chosen 
 +locale works for me and I'm not going to change it. I hope you didn't want me anything important, because there goes fake-ish address.
