I seriously don't understand some of you people saying you wouldn't pay to play online. It costs less than 10 cents a day to play on xbox live ( last 13 months costed me 29.99 ). The service is well worth that much money to play! And I am certain the same could be said for PSN if need be. Yes it would suck to have to pay it, but its a good service in the long run and well worth the $.
PSN and Live both cost a lot of money to sustain and make better. So I can understand that Sony wants a new revenue stream coming in. No matter what you think of Microsoft they really have gotten it right with Live. And I feel like paying a small amount of money to continually improve the service is well worth it.
