Would you be more inclined to purchase a game on PS4 if it has free online, than requiring a subscription to play online on another platform?

If you say yes to the former. Then that's how it helps them.

Only if you're not already paying for the subscription for other games on that console anyway. But regardless with PS+ having 26.4m subscribers (as of december 2016) it's a major factor in PlayStation's recent record breaking profits. It's here to stay.

That's around 1.5 Billion dollars a year of revenue from PS+.

Holy shit, only half of PS4 owners have PS plus?
