Do you pay for sports channels, cable service or public transportation?

Wasn't XBLG a premium service? 

If you get ads on your channels its because your paying for the basic package and 1if you didn't want ads in your transport you would buy a car.

2Stop excusing mediocrity, why does MS need politicians to pay for politcal ads, when Sony doesn't? Is Microsoft predicting a 2-Billion dollar quarterly loss?

1- Why would somebody buy a car just because of adverts on public transportation? Great analogy here.

2- You stop promoting trivial issues when it isn't necessary. Why does MS needs money when Sony doesn't? That's what I get from your comment.

Adverts don't hinder gaming experience on Xbox and any genuine Xbox owners can tell you that.

It's like paying to play online was a sacrilege last year and this year is ok.

It's hard to take you folks seriously...

Do you even realize WHY there wasn't a huge stink about PS+ being necessary?  You support ads on a system you already paid for and are paying a subscription for, so probably not.  But I'll explain it to you.  It's because PS+ is a STEAL.  Sony actually made it a service of value.  They gave some nice extra features for the console, but mostly they give away great games.  Not ones that came out 4-5 years ago.  Newer ones.  And MOST IMPORTANTLY, they didn't take things that should be accessible to everyone, i.e. internet browser and Netflix, and shove them behind PS+ to give it FAKE value.  This is why many said that yes it sucked and they could understand if anyone would be mad about it, but that it wasn't that big a deal.  There's also the fact that most of the people who are buying PS4, now, either had PS+ or were paying for Live, but are now happy they are getting something worthwhile back now paying for their online.
