Both Vita and PS3 have free online play though. Hence, without paid online play on PS4 these numbers would be a fraction.

Frankly, its a great number of subscribers and this is why Sony chose to charge for online play. Its probably the most profitable part of having a console these day.

Sure, but that still means more than half of the ps4 install base never plays online multiplayer. Single and local multiplayer are still the biggest target audience. Actually I have ps+ and the last time I played online, erm, dark souls 2 I think. That was on ps3. Ah, I played Journey again on ps4 and saw someone else around!

I've had PS+ for about 4 or 5 years now, and i never play online multiplayer. I just have PS+ for the free games every month.
