Let's say the average Vita games sells for $40. Retail and manufacturing take their cut, so that the publisher and Sony get only $20.

Your $50 subscription is the equivalent of 2.5 games. Now factor in that you can't play your games without the subscription, that you'll be on it for 5 years and that you'll be buying overpriced Vita accessoires.
