Considering that they are all for-profit firms, I'd think they all are, especially if I were an investor. One way or another they're going to make their profits. Which company does it the worst depends on how much they profit on the thing you value. I personally don't find console online gaming appealing so I don't care if a company charges for online, I won't pay for it. However, if a manufacturer prevented the sale of used games (like Microsoft tried with XBO) I will be up in arms, because I enjoy buying used games. It depends on what you prioritize.
