If you're worried about the ignorant, who is to say there won't be a very clear level of transparency about this? I would imagine if this is the route they are taking, there will be a disclaimer that says you will need a PS+ membership to play the game, and it won't be hidden away in the fine print.
By the way, if you could keep the game without a sub, if would be cheaper to pay for a month of PS Plus, download the game, upgrade, then remove your sub after 30 days. I don't think they want word of that getting around. (Although it could actually increase memberships).
As far as a comparison with XBL, there were services that were stuck behind a paywall with no alternative. This is not the case here. This is an option for those who are going to continue to use PS Plus to get the game on discount. Otherwise, get the hard copy.

@italics: You know this because? Just because their is a disclaimer doesn't make it defensible.
@bolded: this isn't uncommon in the Playstation Ecosystem. I mean cross buy alone contradicts this.
@normal: its not a discount, you get less content for less price. Saving 10$ is meaningless, when you don't even own the game. Your essentially paying for 50$ dlc

Well, your point was that this practice was going to trick ignorant gamers. With a discalimer there, that's hardly going to be the case, unless of course they can't read.
They still get full price on a new release that has cross buy, unless I'm mistaken.
It's a discount if you're planning on keeping PS+. What content am I missing? If you couldn't connect is the only time this would become an issue.
