In April 2022, of the 33.6 million subscriptions on Xbox consoles, 21.9 million were for Game Pass (excluding PC), with the remaining 11.7 million being Xbox Live Gold. The net revenue per subscription was $9.26 – just shy of the $9.99 price tag, suggesting most subscribers pay full price. By comparison, Microsoft was receiving $6.10 for each Xbox Live Gold subscription.

A bit surprising that most people pay full price. I really was under the impression that almost everyone did the 3 years gold-to-gamepass conversion and get it really cheap. But maybe the people here (or on Reddit) are not representative of all subscribers.

My 3 year conversion ends in February. Still undecided if I'll renew at the full monthly price.

My conversion ended ages ago. I'm paying full price now, and I'm not complaining, it's worth it, but if there's a cheaper way, I'd love to hear it.

You can still do the conversion trick, it just converts at a lower rate. It's still cheaper than paying full price.
