Why do or don't you have PSN+?

The only thing I'd want from PSN Plus is the background downloading.

Wait, you have to pay for background downloading?

Jesus Christ, now I'm really going to go buy another 360. I may as well pay for the whole package that's more tightly integrated.

Really? They charge for BACKGROUND DOWNLOADING? My facepalm animation can't be violent enough to display how ridiculous I find this idea.

I was wondering why my PS3 wouldn't download shit in the background...

I think I phrased it wrong.  I meant to say the option to download when the system is powered off.  It's pretty cool to turn the console off and find all of your downloads are finished the next time you play.  On PS3, unless you have PSN Plus, you have to do it with the power on. Most things will let you download while playing a game (but not all).  It should be free, though.

Okay, that makes more sense.

Not a lot of sense because requiring someone to pay for such a thing is still fucking retarded but not quite as cork-on-the-fork stupid as it sounded at first.
