I don't think lowering the price is going to help because you really can't beat free. Sony is giving almost the same thing pretty much for free. The people who defend paying for Live just haven't played PS3 and don't know what they are really paying for with Live, just like me before I got a PS3 myself. As of now Live is just a more polished and glittery version of PSN and I'm sure next gen PSN will be even better which will make for some tough competition.
The only way I can see them justifying the cost is by giving actual games (or other services) for free like with the PS+ subscription, which they did start with Happy Wars and its a fun game. But they need to do a lot more. I personally don't see myself ever going back to the Xbox brand if both the companies keep their current online model. I'd much rather go with PS since online is free and the number of exclusives they have is on a different level to what Xbox has. This is after I've had PS3 for only about a month and the 360 for over 3 years.
