That's not really answering the question is it. Furthermore, he doesn't use the words "ALWAYS CONNECTED" nor does he refer to being connected while away from the console. He only mentions when not using it.

Whats to answer?? You asked a question that I could answer anyway I want which would then take us in a circle jerk. Instead I gave you proof of a simliar solution that does not meet your specification.
Why don't you tell me whats the difference because he doesn't have to use the same words for the actual solution to be the same. If the console is in a low powered mode that allows it to upload and download from PSN, then its alwasy on, alwasy connected. If you could show me a case why this is not the same instead of of telling me the words are not the same then that would be a better case. Both the solutions do the same thing and unless specified are the same. Trying to wring out extra meaning from always on, always connected is going more towards speculation than anything else.
What you are trying to do is find reason that MS would make a console require internet connectivity even though with the amount of XBL subscriptions compared to how many people own the console is only 25% of the customer base. MS is a business first and it doesn't even remotely make sense for them to require an internet connection to limit the penatration of their next consoles in peoples homes. You can bet there will be DRM but it will be on the publishers just like it is now with Project 10 dollar and other such methods.
As mentioned before, the document gives an exact meaning of what always on, always connected means so there is no reason for me to extrapolate more than what is written. There is no confusion and there is no opinion until MS says differently.

First, I never said it would require online, so I don't know why you're creating an unnecessary argument with me.
Second, you said you were just saying exactly what the article wrote. I asked you how you could be saying exactly what it wrote when the article says differently. Then you challenge me to explain, yet, I already have. The article explains that always connected refers to being connected online, and not in reference to "sleep mode", which is what YOU were saying the article espoused.
I have no problem with your argument, just don't step up and challenge what I'm saying when nothing you're are saying counters what I'm saying. Furthermore, you should try to be able to back up your arguments on your own instead of veering off with "ps4 is the same". My question was "how could ms be referring to sleep mode with 'always connected'. Your answer was "PS4 is doing the same thing". That's not a response.

Everything he has been saying has been countering what you have been saying
