Even in a core gamer website the 20% of active user in PSN Home is impressive.

Whatever you have to keep telling yourself man.  Even Joeoroc has finally come around to admitting he was wrong, even if he is still willing to quibble over how many users he thinks are active of that 31 million.

Internet polls on websites are really quite pointless because i'm sure a lot of people voted against it who don't even own a PS3, and a lot of people who voted for it just because they want to make all things PS3 look good.

Not to mention the multiple votes... and the fact a lot of people answered with "yes i've used it once or twice" indicating they should put no... but instead put yes as being an active user.

All that matters is Sony themelves says they won't release active userbase numbers to the public.  Therefore that number is clearly not active userbase.

I said no such thing, and Again i was pointing out the fact that what you claim, about Home being lower Active user base is not clear cut . for instance they said it was over key word "Over 31 million" that could be 31 million +1 or many 100,000's over.

"All that matters is Sony themelves says they won't release active userbase numbers to the public.  Therefore that number is clearly not active userbase."

while true Jack stated that back in 2010, that may not be true today! because where is the other interview's with Jack over active user base number's? 

Look, im not saying that it's 100% for a fact 31 million is all Active user base or that its not, what im pointing out is  while this cannot be taken at face value

of the usage number on a current bases, it does show there is more growth in user base for this service. As far as we know that is Active user base. because this is not 2010, the same thing's said back then may not apply to right now. the fact that is if the platform was not growing at a rate that was Acceptable, why would iP holder's invest into said platform. for instance DR. who is the longest running sci-fi tv show in existance it predate's starwar's, and star trek.

Sony would have most likely have to pay a licence deal to get content of that sort to be able to put that in Home. Not saying they could make a deal to offset that licence, but Sony also has Starwars iP content. Those iP holder's are not just going to give out such licence for a service that has no real Active user base.

Why would they, if the service did not show the number's for it?
