I'm not convinced the PS3 is the "most connected" games console in the world. I've tried both the PS3 and Xbox Live online play, and I much prefer XBLive than PS3. Cross-game chat, Xbox Live Parties, 1 vs. 100 etc. all things I really enjoy on the XB.
I appreciate that others may think differently however :))))

I agree with Mik3h on the "most connected" thing. PSN is free and anyone can create multiple accounts.
If only one PSN account was counted per console that has one I'd bet the numbers are a lot closer to, if not less than, XBL.

I've got 16 accounts on there, and about a dozen more that I can't fit...I would never do that if I had to pay for every account.

It's the most connected because almost every PS3 owner has like 3-4 accounts on it.
It's not about which is the better service, it's the fact there are more registered on the accounts on PSN than Live.
Also, please STFU about OtherOS. It's becoming more of a fanboy's excuse than an actual problem for OtherOS users.
You're not getting OtherOS unless Sony re-adds so please move on with your life.

It isn't over, it is just getting started. Sony has been hit with dozens of lawsuits from all over the world, you will hear a lot more of this.

Man this sucks. The reason why many ppl buy "downloadable content" on the ps3 is because they have the money to since they dnt have to pay for sumthing like this. I have 6 accounts on my ps3. I'm not sold on this because its so bad. "a user will be able to include full access to certain PS3 downloadable content and PSN titles, such as the PSone archives and Minis, and be able to play them for as long as the PlayStation Plus membership is valid. Some games will only be playable for a certain amount of time on a trial basis before needing to be purchased." does tht mean tht sum ppl may be able to like buy an add on and unsubscribers not? or is tht like preium themes and demos and stuff?
