Was it really Jim Sterling who wrote that article? Isn't he supposed to be a quality gaming journalist?
So cheap with all that foul language and grotesque metaphors. Such a primitive and juvenile attempt at sarcasm.

Turkish, I just do not understand why you are arguing so much and trying to "convince" other people that do not think like you about PSN/Xbox Live.
You are at the edge of insulting people who pay for Xbox Live. I do prefer Xbox Live and I'm not going to argue with you about his advantages (my personal opinion) because this thread would take forever (as it does with DirtyP2002).
I do respect the fact that you do not want to pay for something or the fact that you prefer Sony over Microsoft, or PSN over Xbox Live for your own reasons.
But please, for god sake, stop insulting people with comment like that:
“You have to pay for those apps, they're supposed to be free. If you think you get a special service paying for youtube and that it is somewhat better than on other platforms, then more power to you.
I guess you need something to justify paying for the service.”
He does need to justify anything; he is just trying to explain you why “he” prefers Xbox Live and why “he” is okay to pay for it; like many other people. Also nobody said that the Youtube app is superior because we are paying for Xbox Live; you are saying that.
Everyone can list the reasons why they prefer Xbox Live or PSN. And you know what; it is not because you are not agreeing or because you do not care about the reasons people are paying for Xbox Live that they are not valid reasons.

I think you missed where that one guy started all of this by presenting "XBLA > every online-game-service on the market" as a fact, despite being told many times that "best" is a relative thing.
For example, when he asserted that LIVE having "more and better apps" was one of the reasons why it's worth the cost. My desktop computer is ten steps away from my bed and my laptop is always hooked up to my television. A gaming console having apps is one of the most meaningless things in the world to me. That guy is never going to get that value is a relative thing. If you're going to call out anyone for preaching that one service is absolutely superior, shouldn't he be one of your primary targets?

Yes, tell that to netflix that rocks about 2 kajillion xbox owners on any tv in their house. Didn't computer purist thinking go out with y2k?
