SPOTTED: rumors that Sony's On High people are planning a "premium" content model for the PS3's online service.
PSN vs. Xbox Live has always been an "apples with a monthly fee if you want apples worth eating vs. free apples in more expensive trees" comparison. In an uncharacteristic fit of wisdom, Sony has to date seen fit to provide all its online content free of charge.
Presumably, all current and currently announced PSN features will remain free, but as those features are the backbone of the average console gamer's interest, it begs the question: what exactly does Sony plan on charging for?
