"lowering" the cost of entry by introducing a subscription model sounds like a good idea to me provided they still allow people to outright buy the console too.

my only question is ... does sony have the instructor to enforce a subscription? i mean, it is basically a loan and there are sure to be defaulters. how do they enforce people pay up on their subscription?

Maybe something like automatically having the right to take the balance owed from their bank account. Example when you sign up for something using a credit card and forget to unsubscribe they automatically take out however much it costs from your account. 

maybe, but it is easy enough to cancel a credit card.  there is a pretty substantial amount of legal involved in getting a phone.  this works for ATT, verizon, ect because they've been doing it for years.  not sure a sony could pull it off on a whime.  i suppose MS did though so maybe i'm blowing things out of proportion.
