If PSN was what was breaking the bank accont they would've have started charging long ago. Seriously, stop believing the crap microsoft feeds you to rape your wallet. Microsoft doesnt want PSN to be free because that gives SONY an advantage over them, and their too greedy to make it free.

Do you see anyone else charging for the use of their online network? Does nintendo do it? steam? blizzard? anyone? No. Dont you think that is a mighty coincidence? Seriously, stop beeing manipulated by microsoft and its payroll analysts...

I am actually curious on how you came up with this stuff. What exactly is MS feeding people about LIVE to rape our wallets? How are they manipulating us? If these companies are not here to make money, exactly what are they here for?

So, if i make a company will you give me millions of dollars if i tell you i got toilet paper you really need to have and its so good you need to pay a monthly fee for it.

This is where i mean the manipulation is. You are so used to it you dont even question it. You think a company that charges for something is entitled to charge as much as they want for it.  Microsoft convinced you that you're getting something that is worth your money, but in fact, it isnt. The costs of mantaining servers was high in the nineties but nowadays its minimal with the leap in technology. Check NCsofts financial breakdown and you will see that server maintenance costs are almost non-existant in the whole picture. You are beeing fooled and you're showing you like beeing fooled and microsoft is taking your money laughing.

If the costs to mantain the servers were so high, why would microsoft add all those video (sports, videos, demos, etc) services. Obviously they would not be able to afford it and they wouldnt be making money...

Learn this once and for all: Microsoft is taking your money cause you're letting them. The service costs are not worth the money you are paying. Wich is why no other company is so arrogant or feels the need to charge for it.
