all this means is that PS4's PSN will be pay to play ^^^... they are just introducing this to ease the process in 3 years when it goes "live".

Please, do share the logic bridge between this article and PS4 having paid PSN.

I don't think there is anything set in stone about the PS4 yet.  But I wouldn't count out having to pay to play online with the PS4.  As a company Sony isn't as foolish as some people may think.  They have seen what Microsoft has done with live and I will guarantee you that they have people studying if it will work for the PS4 or not.

 

There are expenses that go along with the PSN that some people forget about.  Buying and maintaining servers costs a lot of money, and instead of losing money with PSN I am certain Sony would love to have millions of dollars coming in every month.  It actually makes more since for them if you think about it.  Sadly, Microsoft has proven people will pay for this service.
