I seem to recall one of the marketplace sets they released would crash people because of the particle effects they had when they launched. That's since been fixed, but it doesn't change how dumb it is.
That is one of the big things that I hate about live, and all modern MMOs for that matter. The pushing of Microtransactions that they try to claim as not buying power. Yet they're more than happy to let you buy Mounts that save you in-game plat, EXP Potions that let you expedite the leveling process, Salvage Potions that let you trivialize tradeskilling, and stupid Fashionquest shit that belongs in Barbie's Island Adventure.
It's fortunate they limit TLPs somewhat in what they can buy, but it's still really fucking dumb. People pay subscriptions to make sure developers continue to work on the game and servers get the necessary maintenance. Everything else should be available through gameplay not some stupid cash shop.
