MS is struggeling with Xbox live Gold? Thanks to games like Halo 4 their was a big jump in Gold Accounts. Honestly I think more are dropping out of PS plus. Was happy that friends got an PS plus account so they finally could try games like Red dead redemption /just cause 2 (games that I recommended a lot) and when I asked last time they like the games they just told me they not even tried most of the free games and don't see a point anymore to keep going on with it.

PS Plus 259% increase in subscribers in November 2012

Without actual numbers of subscribers though that doesn't mean much.... I'm sure playstation plus is successful, but throwing out a percentage increase doesn't actually say if the subscription is popular or not.  I really hate these empty stats companies throw out.  I wish they would just give the real stats...

Edit:  Also, black friday sales isn't exactly the best example of whether or not people are dropping ps+.  I agree that it is more likely growing, but a more indicative stat would be growth during a non holiday month...
