Read the bold.  When i meant average... I meant about average for a large company that loses your private information.

What Sony offered was about average in value to the consumer, though cheaper to them compaired to what most companies offer in the same situation. 

Again when there haven't been similar situations in gaming industry you can't just compare it to those outside the industry and say that's the 'average' you would expect. And unless you have anything back up your claim that the 'customers' in general expected at least this much from be my guest I would gladly accept that. But fact of the matter is that's just not true at all. Heck a day or so ago we weren't even aware of what we would get for certain and we already saw customers being happy with what Sony was doing with free id protection services and such.

so again, you just made up that statement without anything to back it up with. no one sensible person can ask from sony to do anything more than what they have already done.

That's just... a horrible arguement.  What in your mind makes the videogame industry special compaired to every other industry out there?

what kind of logic is that? 0_o industries differ, companies differ and situations differ.

Ok do me a favor, give an example or two of a company having to compensate for this many users. I can't remember the exact number of psn accounts but think it was 70 something million accounts. Not sure how many of them even had legit info but let's say 50 or so million accounts with real users.

They are rebuilding psn ground up, had a hit in stock market, a company who is not as well off a company than many 'giants' in or out of the industry, they are gonna lose revenue by giving free psn plus, gonna incur a lot of expenses by having adopt free ID theft protection programs across the globe not just a country or two.

you jsut can't generalize, too many variables in situations like this
