Though no prices have been released yet, Playstation 3 owners can expect to start paying for a subscription for their PSN network. First, for online game play, that will stay free, thankfully. What you’re going to be getting is a “service offering” that offers premium content and services that you would not be able to receive in the free subscription.
Another bombshell to drop out of Sony?s recent Investor/Analyst Meeting was the revelation of an upcoming online store called the ?Sony Online Service.? While the name is tentative, the features Sony are planning for it aren?t and we should expect it sometime in 2010. But what does ?Sony Online Service? really mean? Is it just the infrastructure of the Playstation Network with a new name and more multimedia? Hardly. This isn?t just another competitor to iTunes ? its far beyond that.
