Not necessarily the case. There comes a point where you must except that the entertainment you consume has a price. You either see the value in it or you don't. Sometimes you can argue a moral ground with stuff like consumer freedom, but this isn't one of them. I've lavished in the fact that psn is free, in fact I stopped paying for XBL this year becuase I no longer see value in it because I'm never online anymore. But I completely understand the reasoning behind this and would like to see sony strengthen their online infrastructure and services. Sony didn't make a profit for almost 7 years, again your entertainment comes at a cost. At some point we have to balance our expectations with the fact that people on the other side have to make money.



Listen I understand why this is happening, that doesnt mean i have to agree with it, and the fact that people are defending this descision after they have attacked it for soooo long really just shows that there loyalty lie's with the brand and not what makes it great, which in my eyes is really sad. And to deny the case of a huge Benifit to a console is also very sad, i see the buisness standpoint and what they did was absolutely brilliant (seriously hats off to sony in the sense of the genious decption they pulled) in getting people to get PS+ before it bacame mandatory for online (I have had PS=for about a year now).

What I am trying to get at here is not the fact that sony is doing what they are doing, but the fact that people who gave the xbox shit for this type of feature are now embracing it fully and with open arms. And so if you are to be a fan of a system it should be because of it's merits and strenghts and not be because of the company who made it.

Well fanboys will be fanboy, they are not the majority fortunately enough.
