PSN Now Has 70M Monthly Active Users; PS Plus Hits 26.4M Members
This article talks about The PlayStation Network now has 70 million monthly "active" users, Sony has disclosed. Sony revealed the new figure as part of its latest Corporate Strategy Meeting for FY2017, which was released today [PDF]. A slide (below) shows the 70 million number but does not mention how Sony defines what it means to be "active" or when the number was reached. It likely covers at leastPlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Vita.
I believe that as a result of new and digital media the gaming industry has thrived with sony taking advantage of these technological advances. Paid subscriptions ensure that sony profit from people being able to connect online despite previously being free. This could potentially be to compete with the cheaper computer gaming services and other gaming insitutions.
