psn profile question

sorry if this is on the wrong board but one of my psn friends has a + sign next to thier name in the friends menu on the xmb, what does it mean? is it something to do with the ammount of trophies you have, i noticed he has over a thousand.

also mine has a little diamond shape next to it, but i'm thinking that might just indicate that it's my profile

The plus sign means your friend is a PlayStation Plus Subscriber. Its a Service offered ontop of PSN for 50 Dollars a year. PS+ gives subscribers discounts on Downloadable games, free to use DLCgames every month, autoupdates ect.

More info can be found here

Also the diamond by your profile just means that it is your profile

ok, thanks. i might look into getting playstation plus, it sounds pretty useful
