Xbox Live is down?

It appears that Xbox live has decided to go on strike. There is no mention of the problem on Major Nelsons website yet but all other Xbox live related sites are down as well.

So is this just a really bad network failure or do you think we can expect our Fall update when it comes back up again?

Since we have no nice warning messages or anything like that I am going to have to presume this is a network crash.

How long can it be down for before we start demanding refunds?

[Update] Disaster averted, Live is back up again. Must have been a network crash
