Unlike XBL which LOCKED a bunch of free services behind Gold, PS+ is worth it by itself with ADDED content, so I already pay for PS+. 

The fact it is needed for PS4 multiplayer is a non issue as I already pay for the added things.  It will obviously be compared to XBL Gold, but really they are complete opposites, XBox locks stuff away and makes you pay to unlock it, PS adds things and doesn't lock free services away.

That's silly.  They're exactly the same now.

If anything... all i proves is that PS3 had a much better trojan to get people to accept paying for online.

They're not the exactly the same.  PS+ offers you free games per month.  The paywall only blocks online multiplayer and not any of the others apps and features.

I'm already a PS+ members because it's a great service, not because it's online.  I don't support requiring to pay to play online, but the model behind it is much better than Microsoft's pay or you can't do sh**.

I don't like this pay to play online because once my Plus runs out and I don't want to resubscribe I'll still have to, but I'd rather pay to play online rather than be tied down to restrictive DRM where I can't play any of my games in the future.
