I figured out why they would use 8 months.
8 months from feb, catches everyone that has used live at just under 6 months of the last christmas, which would include users that had a 6 month, or used their 3 free accounts for a month and then bought a three month, etc etc.
Then 6 months after Christmas, we hit summer, where a lot of people go away, so subscriptions might actually be quite low.
Of note, in 2011 we got updates to live membership every 3 months or so, but in 2012 we did not.


Da da daaaaaa

can you link me to the latest ACTIVE PSN user count?  Thanks. 

Who said anything about PSN? I thought we were discussing the xbox live numbers and figuring out the state of it. I'm here to analyze the companies in the industry and while, (yes kowen) PSN is much, much, much lower in number, it has virtually nothing to do with my want to get a better read on the live user statistics so vaguely provided.

thanks

Lower? If anything it's higher with more people buying PS3s in recent years than 360s and given that we know there were over 90m PSN users over a year ago. Certainly not "much, much, much lower" at least.

90 million figure represents PSN accounts registered accross all networked Sony products (such as televisions), and not just on PS3 and PSP.
