For instance, when I played Bioshock, I sure as hell didn't want to talk to anyone on chat. If someone sent me an invite, I would only talk while I had the game on pause. That being said, I absolutely want cross-game chat available to me at all times. If I'm playing multiplayer, in fact, I have no problem talking to friends while I shoot people in the face. The music thing is totally different, though. I never want to use my own music over what the developers chose for their game. The ONLY time I use custom soundtracks are for racing games. But that's one game out of like 50, so I can go ahead and say I really don't have a use for custom soundtracks. I don't use my 360 for anything but playing games and watching stuff on Netflix.
