Reasonable on 31 October 2009
I think MS is going to struggle to keep Live well ahead of PSN simply beacuse it already fufils its core function really well, but there is nothing to stop Sony playing 'catch up' while MS has to figure out actual new stuff which normally takes way longer than simply equalling something that's already in place.
Live was a huge difference for a long time, and really the only useful console online IMHO for a long time - but of course with PSN Sony can copy the basic template and in the end, apart from adding more and more non-gaming features, unless the games themselves change Sony should be able to more or less equal Live faster than MS can add new stuff.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
