Xbox360 live points need for content

Had to connect to live to watch AVI, MP4 and Divx files. (needed updates)

Mismatched DVD drive even worked except for games that would not play. (no problem)

LAN only use no problem and Xbox360 was the only way to watch protected content.

I Have the Same Problem! Points and Xbox Live Gold Cards on my Xbox360 don't work.

Mano's problem has nothing to do with military bases. everybody has that problem if they try to buy it through the Xbox One.

the only apparent options are to use an Xbox360 or Xbox.com

Xbox.com requires a credit card to obtain free Xbox360 content, but if you are using an Xbox360 you don't need one, for some stupid reason

Gamerscore is not the same thing as Microsoft points. There is no way to convert gamerscore into currency.

Microsoft points used to be Microsoft's own form of currency that you would need to purchase content on Live.

There is no way to gift content over Live. What you would need to do is purchase a Microsoft points card or Microsoft gift card and he can use that to add currency to his account to purchase the content.
