Neither service is particularly great or worth paying for, but I believe PS+ is a better deal....People acting like Xbox Live is end all are simply delusional . The majority of the Xbox Live community either plays in a party or without a mic plugged in because the community is so bad. I'd rather turn off all voice chat than actually have to listen to children screaming into the mic or grown men doing the same.

:lol:

If by converse you mean exchange racist rants then yes, they do talk often. You could play Halo 3 all night and not hear anyone have anything sensible to say. The majority of both online services have horrible communities that are lacking some kind of enforcement. On PC servers swearing is usually an auto-matic ban from the server. 

eso. when i saw it my penis immediately got hard. that couldve been from my girl laying down next to me half naked around the same time but that was like a sign from god lmmfao

ea is a GREAT company. i never trusted microsoft, i know they just want my money but then again so does sony and nintendo so whats the difference?

Cows don't care about sales. Just like they don't care about Bungie, shooters, indie games, or arcade scores.

Stop complaining about europe being more expensive than the USA.  The reason is because we are richer and can afford to pay more than an american here. In america $50, 000 is considrred good but here if you only  earn $50K you are considered poor.

The facts are DVD's still outsell digital movies by a factor of several multiples.

I don't think anyone is going to argue that eventually digital is going to finally take over, but to say that "you haven't watched a DVD in 2 years" just tells me you don't know anything about films or movies. 

I can say the same thing about music. I have bought maybe 5 CD's at most in the last 10 years. Why? Because I literally know nothing at all nor have any interest anymore in new music... of course that applies to both digital and physical format. I just don't pay attention to or buy music at all period, I'm cool with all the CD's I bought in the 90's. I still listen to them. With films I do pay attention and have an interest, and thus I buy blu-ray. I can't imagine anyone that actually has an interest being satisfied with "solely" digital formats. It's just not acceptable... (yet).

Amazon's streaming service is a joke. They have literally no content...

The reason the movie services haven't "taken over" yet is because it's segregated. Just like you said 15-20 services. Nobody is going to subscribe to ALL of them, likewise people arent going to want to segregate their digital purchases across 15-20 difference services. The best option is still physical format, and in fact blu-ray sales actually GREW last year. 

However digital is growing faster, and blu-ray has never grown faster than the rate at which DVD is declining. Like I said I have no doubt that in 10 years, maybe as little as 5 years that digital will really start to take over in movies. But as of now you can't get a complete catalogue on any one format, and digital almost NEVER has the best source materials for classic films. Anyone that is buying old DVD-SD sourced content in digital format (at full price) is an absolute idiot, especially when newer restorations are constantly still coming out on blu-ray. Unfortunately the digital services do not keep up with the latest and best restorations of these films, if you watch something like Lawrence of Arabia or Taxi Driver on blu-ray it's eye popping the difference between that and what you get on streaming.

While PS3 definitely lacked "smoothness" in several areas the 360 did better (game installs, navigating the store, etc), it's not a given that will carry over to the PS4/Xbox One.

Sony came out and said a huge focus of their PS4 design is "immediacy" and quickness. They have a 2nd CPU built in just for background downloads and multi-tasking. I believe Xbox One went a similar direction. 

I think it's a "wait and see" approach on this one, there's definitely no reason to just assume Xbox One will even have an advantage here. For gaming experience, the PS3 was already neck and neck. It is just the "other things" where the PS3 was lacking. So long as PS4 nails those down, and brings the gaming experience to next gen... I'm quite sure PSN+ will be the far better value. Definitely if we continue getting the amount of content that PSN+ has been delivering. The value proposition is actually not even close, PSN+ wins hands down.
