I dont understand why Sony dosent charge for PSN membership. Microsoft gets away with charging £40 a year and is still hugely successful, so why dosent Sony begin to charge? If i was in charge of Sony i would undercut Microsoft and charge £30 a year, and this would have only positive effects;

1.) They would get higher revenue from it and it would cost them nearly nothing to administer.

2.) PS3 sales would likely increase because  it would be in direct competition with Microsoft and consumers would likely choose the PS3 as they want the best deal.

It seems like a no-brainer to me, so why dont they do it? Is there a reason why they dont do it that i dont know? Are they making a stupid mistake?


What matter of nonsense is that? That makes no sense whatsoever.

Here is the likely scenario: Present customers would be pissed off cause thats not the package they were promised and not as likely to jump on PS4. New customers would feel reluctant to buy the PS3 instead of the Wii U that offers free online. Again hurting PS4 sales aswell.

Cmon... how can you not see that?
