Spartan Ops is part of the online features of the game, therefore it is perfectly reasonable to block it to non-Gold members, especially considering the future episodes are likely to be downloaded, and it's 10 weeks of content including high-quality CGI episodes. It costs a ton to make, and is paid for by MS. By buying gold you pay MS. So it's not entirely 'free', but personally I find £30 a year for gold perfectly reasonable for the service I receive and the amount of fun, friends etc. I get from it.
So what about if they do Season 2, ask money for it, and then require you to pay to unlock it with Gold? Will you criticize them then? And you say we pay with Gold to buy Spartan Ops? Did the $60 not cover that? It is after all an advertised feature of the product.
And where is the line drawn? This will encroach on other games in some form for sure.
