I paid $30 last time. A sale in Bestbuy for 13 months. Still alot of money (Could have bought a game instead). Not really sure if I'm going to get it next year (since I hardly play online anymore or really even play games to that matter)

I think that's only for a limited time. I remember purchasing X Box Live for 40 bucks not too long ago.

I think thearguement comes from having to pay for it at all, not just that its expensive. I generally tendo to think that you are not obligated to buy it so speak with your dollar (or euro lol).

It's still way too expensive. My PC has way better features than Xbox Live, and I can use them all for free. And PSN is free. All I want to be able to do online is play games without major lag with good matchmaking and voice chat. I hate DLC packs, I hate digital distribution, I hate Facebook, I hate Twitter, I hate Netflix, and I hate people showing me their penis on the camera when I'm trying to play Uno. There is nothing about Xbox Live that justifies it costing money when PSN and far better PC services are free.

You pay you play. Yeah it's milking, but at least you have а cow that gives you good milk. 40$ is still reasonable. It's way better than giving 18$ each month for WOW

40GBP in the UK, Europe gets ripped off as always.

Floppy_Jim

Actually there are a few sites online where you can buy 13 months for £28 (sorry i cant be bothered to search for links but its where i bought mine) They send you a code within 10 minutes. Buying it straight off of the console is definitely the most expensive.

It isn't worth it for people who don't play online. And Live is $60 in Canada. 60 Canadian dollars. Which is $53 USD.

Stop moaning because we pay more? I don't moan that much, I get 13 months for £29, which isn't bad Luckily MS will catch on to the concept that there are people that play games in countries that aren't the US or Japan....Sony sure hasn't

eBay is your friend.

You can easily get 13 months for $40 easily, or £30 if you are from europe (around 34 euros), and have the code delivered to you by email in record time.

So because you can gobargain huntingand get LIVE for £29 which isn't even from the M$ web site it means

"MS will catch on to the concept that there are people that play games in countries that aren't the US or Japan"

And

"Sony sure hasn't"

Wait isn't PSN FREE in ALL territories?
