Bungie and Microsoft have acknowledged the problem

I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. I would be willing to bet all the money I have that they knew about this problem a long time ago. They probably had some actuary draw up some algorithm and calculate out whether it was worth it to try and fix the problem. They would've taken the estimated number of people who still have a launch 360 and determined what percentage of people could return the game and them not lose money over it. I'm sure there are other variables involved when calculating such a thing, but it all comes down to whether the percentage is low enough to take the risk. Also, the only reason it wouldn't be worth it is cuz it would be expensive to fix, AKA take a hell of a long time. They may or may not know what the direct cause is, but I imagine they have narrowed it down to the hardware in the launch 360 is inadequate. It might just be the cynic in me, but I bet they know what the exact problem is and just hope that more people will buy a new Xbox rather than mess with it.
I said earlier that I highly doubt that this is something they can fix with software without HUGE revisions to the game. I just hope Bungie and Microsoft make it right. M$ is the publisher and we all know that this is a fairly high profile game so hopefully this problem will get the attention it deserves and get fixed.
From what others are saying, some of the newer versions also can't read it.
They also might not have known about the issue as majority of people are able to play it, which includes Bungie and Microsoft.
