Survey proposes PSN subscription service
A
new survey on PlayStation's Asia website includes the rather interesting proposal of a monthly subscription plan for users of the PC-based PlayStation store (although the plan could apply elsewhere, the survey's focus was on the PC store). This isn't a monthly subscription akin to Xbox Live Gold, however, where you pay monthly to use online multiplayer (and now receive DLC
a week in advance). The proposed plan, according to the suggestion, is "one price for unlimited download."
The pricing plan would be especially interesting in Asia given the vast number of PSOne classic titles available for download (North America and Europe have a
rather paltry list). The comment itself is brief enough to consider it a passing though, although that Sony is at some level considering the option is very noteworthy. (An example of an analogous service for the music industry would be
Rhapsody.) What would it take for you to consider a monthly subscription plan for PSN downloads?
