If Sony can get two million PS+ users before locking online behind a paywall, it means that the service is good enough for users to pay $50 a year only knowing 13 games you'd receive for free, not knowing if anything in the future is going to be worth your while or not.

Another thing is I don't know how many people I've seen ask about Playstation Plus running out are you able to keep the free games. It's not that difficult to comprehend yet you have to repeatedly explain it to people over and over again before they get it.

Those are the main reasons. Not knowing what you're getting free in the future and so many people not being able to comprehend the concept behind it all.

The thing is, with the forced PS+ due to online. Lets say some people just decide they don't want to play the online any longer, because not everyone plays CoD, etc, not everyone stays playing the same online games over and over again. If those people want to drop the service and they've been enjoying the free games offered each month, then they might keep the service for that reason alone, to make sure they keep building up their library of free games. I've known some Xbox fans to not resubscribe for a few months then pick it up later, whether it was due to financial issues, etc. You don't resubscribe for a few months on PS+ you're missing out on three games for PS4 and many for the PS3 and Vita. If it's because they don't have the money, that might get them to just pay the overpriced $10 for one month until they can get more money for a full year.

Anyways, the more people that get a PS4, the more people that will talk about the free games per month.
