Its been months that elite has been released and people are still posting stupid comments like "Oh its Bungie.net/Battlelog but paid". NO its not. Go try it out, or read a little before making such comments.
The paid version of elite is pretty much giving you all the dlc early and saves you about $10 than buying them separately. Plus it also includes competitions that you can participate on a daily basis where you can win REAL prizes. Finally its also where you can participate with your clan as well and record longer HD videos. Everything else on elite, like stat-tracking, groups, facebook integration is FREE.
Premium Elite is very much meant for the very hardcore COD gamers who want to play competitively and who end up buying all the dlc anyways. I don't have the paid version because I never tend to need to buy dlc over the excessive amounts of maps that are already in the game, but its a very good deal for those that do buy everything+they get it early on a monthly basis. Also Activision is giving the paid members 1 month extra for the problems on elite.
