Doesn't need to. PSN Plus is solely about games. Everything else can be done for free off of Plus.

So, with a PS+ account, anyone in the house can play COD multiplayer online on the PS4 without the PS+ account being logged into the PS4?  Like they can with the Xbox One and Xbox LIVE Gold?

Again.  With Xbox One and Xbox LIVE Gold, anyone can access all of Xbox LIVEs features without the Xbox LIVE Gold account holder being logged.  Including Online Multiplayer. 

If that were so, it would be a PSN feature, not a PSN+ Feature. You don't need to pay for things like that if its there.

But you do need to pay for PS+ to get online multiplayer gaming on the PS4.  The difference is.  With Xbox LIVE Gold, everyone who uses that Xbox One can also access all of Xbox LIVE's features including online multiplayer. 

If that Xbox One console is my primary console, then anyone can use it and benefit from my Xbox LIVE Gold account.

PS+ is tied to the user account.  So either I have to give my personal account information over to someone else so they can use my PS+ membership for online gaming, or they have to purchase their own PS+ account.


Of course PS+ is tied to the user account, its a secondary upgrade, not the primary online. Xbox Live Gold is the only true way to experience online if you have an Xbox, so you might as well have those perks if you go to a friends house. On the PS3 the online multiplayer (omitting free to play) is still free until next gen so we'll worry about that later shall we?

On PSN your master account is the main account on the console, so if you put that account on your friends console you can still use it or if you get a new console you can redownload all your old goodies. Only draw back is one console at a time.
