Xbox Live purchases down for scheduled maintenance

Xbox announced this morning that some users may have problems making purchases due to scheduled maintenance.

“Hey Xbox members, are you having trouble purchasing content on Xbox Live? Don’t worry, this is due to a scheduled maintenance we are performing. Thank you for staying patient!” a note said on the Xbox Live Status website.

The site didn’t have an estimate for when users could go back to buying things.

“We’ll post another update when more information becomes available,” the note said.
