MS: No Live price hike in the next few months (at least)

	Quote: So in theory then, the price of a year-long subscription to Xbox Live with full access to demos and multiplayer could go up by March or April next year? If Microsoft was to double the price of XBL then, would Sony have to follow suit and start charging for certain PSN privileges like online multiplayer? Would you be prepared to pay for something that used to be free?

This could get very interesting, and not in a good way either :evil:

I've bought PS3 games I wouldn't have otherwise on the strength of the demos...

I can see the advantage of the service as a free service with demos for promotional use, but paying for it if you do not use the multiplayer options will be a backward step.
