Sure, Indies haven't supported Achievements for a while, and there's always been a price ceiling, but it looks like Beacons don't work with them, cloud storage isn't supported, and new releases don't appear under, well, new releases.

It's all in the video above, provided by GameMarx. Even that new Xbox iOS app doesn't list Indies. Why is nobody thinking of the little guys?New Xbox Dashboard features leave Indie Games in the lurch originally appeared on Joystiq on Fri, 09 Dec 2011 01:05:00 EST.

Before I don my tinfoil hat and speculate on why MS would marginalize one of their most interesting services, I think I'll wait and see if this is just corner that they cut in order to get the new dash out there. I wouldn't be surprised if this gets fixed in the next update.
