Xbox Live Rewards Program Launching Today
As the table above shows, the program will reward Xbox Live members for tasks such as renewing a Live Gold subscription--200 MS Points ($2.50) for a 12-month sub--taking a "quick" monthly survey--20 Points ($0.25)--or purchasing "select" Marketplace content.
The program is due to launch later today, though you can sign up now. It's free and something's better than nothing, so huzzah. Xbox Live director of programming Larry 'Major Nelson' Hryb notes that the program is "currently" available only in the US and UK, raising hopes that it may launch elsewhere later.

What annoying timing, I just did a 12-month Live renewal last week thanks to their discount promotion, and I doubt I will get any rewards for it now.
