| Baalzamon said: I'm calling bullshit. First off, there aren't even 70 million true psn users. You have people who have multiple accounts, etc. I'd wager there's probably about 20-30 million unique users that have a psn account. So at $318 per user, you are already down to 9.54 billion for the top. Secondly, what exactly costs $318 per account? |
you guys don't seem to understand. they are not spending 318 per account doing stuff.
it is estimated to cost them 23 billion dollars to fix this all, whether the money is in actual costs or loss of revenue
the person who wrote the article just divided that number by the psn users #. Thus the 318. If you want to say that there are less users, then the 318 is just a higher number. The 23 billion doesn't change.
its like if the president wants to do something and says it will costs americans $10 each. IF there were less americans, that doesn't mean the cost is less. The total costs remains teh same. The less people the higher the cost per person is. So lets say obama wants to add 6 billion dollars to medicare. that is roughly $10 per person. If tehre are only 300 million people in teh us. then that is now $20 per person. The 6 billion doesn't change. Much in the same way this 23 billion doesn't change.
