I have to agree with sales. Most people don't just buy an $18 membership and nothing else and if they do can they be counted as PS+ members since they no longer have the membership. Most get it for a year so $50 is the best estimate. Now the actual number most likely is more than 3 million subscribers imo as there were probably a lot of new memberships created in the later part of 2012 (including myself I believe) but that is pretty much just speculation. So while yes the number COULD be as high as 7.77 million, 1 $18 subscription, it probably isn't. It is somewhere between 2.8 and 7.77 million probably on the lower end as many members had more than 1 $18 subscription. Anything beyond that is pure speculation and there is absolutely no reason to get mad at someone for suggesting 3 million as an estimate. They might be wrong, but with the numbers given, it's the best starting point. 2013 should give much clearer numbers.

Hold on a second.  He started the insults and you're telling me I shouldn't get mad?  Uh, yeah.

I KNOW it won't be 7.77M, just as it won't be 2.8M, either.  That was my ENTIRE POINT.  I don't get what you're saying.  I shouldn't point something like that out?  It was wrong of me to attempt to clarify?
