Whether or not always-on sticks is something, but there's no way all of the rumors would have circulated if MS hadn't considered it at one point.

Both PS4 and Xbox 8 will be "always on".  Always On has to do with a low power state.  It means the device never shutsdown completely.  It always operating in some capacity.  Most likely to decrease the boot time, but also to allow the device to respond proactively to input.

Well yes, there's that. What most people refer to is "always-on DRM", meaning you have to be connected to the internet at all times in order to play any games (regardless if they use the internet or not).

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
