There are literally millions of members. I have cable internet and I'm using a Wi-Fi connection for Xbox Live and I experience no lag. The results will depend on what kind of connection you have.

Other than that, your experience is going to vary depending on the game. Unless you're playing an ages-old game you're not going to have a problem getting games going. Right now I mostly play Gears of War, Madden, and Call of Duty on Live and it's always quick. I'll warn you - you WILL get annoyed quickly with 12 year olds talking over their headsets. You may enjoy it more if you can find other people you know to organize matches with.

That's probably the way i'd set it up then. one person said he had a lot of problems til he hooked his hi-sgive presents tod directly to his 360 and ran his desk-top with the wi-fi. and i'll bet a lot of the 12 yr olds are really 30. hah
