Sony looking for more online revenue
In case you're wondering about it: Sony still wants to make money from PSN.

In an interview with Nikkei Japan, Sony Entertainment's Masayuki Chatani again mentioned they're looking into a subscription model for the online service they're providing:
Servers and the like have running costs, and we would face difficulties if our business depended solely on the sell-and-forget model. After we sell the hardware, though, we continue to sell products such as content and services. We expect to see considerable growth in digital content, such as game download services, avatar items and the like. We can also accept payment in a growing number of ways. In addition to single-payment packaged software, there are also schemes like monthly fees or per-item charges. I think this variety of payment methods will bring about a diverse range of playing methods, too.
So still nothing official, but Sony is clearly working out some scheme that will allow them to get some cash from the online market.

i guess sony likes sabotaging themselves... If they can offer free online gaming before their system was selling well, what makes it so hard now that they are actually making money? Hell you can find plenty of free mmo's online. smh
