Last year, VentureBeat journalist Jeff Grubb made the claim that Microsoft would be discontinuing Xbox Live Gold, the long-running, paid subscription service that Xbox users must join in order to access online multiplayer in many Xbox titles. Grubb reiterated those rumors during his latest premium episode of GrubbSnax, claiming that Microsoft is still planning to get rid of Xbox Live Gold but only after its latest and highly prized initiative, Xbox Game Pass, reaches a certain amount of active subscribers.
