Yes, but when you pay your £3.95 "premium" for a Box Office movie you know EXACTLY what you are getting. With PS+ you're buying blind. Again, for me, it comes down to value and choice.

Sorry, but the cynic in me can't believe that. I don't think it's "early" just delayed for non-subscribers.

“As for your psn collection, that's great, but work out how much you spent on all that, then work out what I'll get from paying £40 in a year, and resubscribing the following year. This is why I don't see it as renting games, because if I always subscribe, I'll always have them!
I have well over £100's worth of PSN stuff now from just paying £40.”
But look at another way. I've been playing WipEout HD for 2 years. It cost me £13.99.
It will cost you £79.98 to do the same. (or £95.92 if you pay every 90 days)
Look, I'm happy that some people are making good use of the service. But, I'd much rather they dropped the "free" stuff and gave us £5.00 credit a month that we can spend on WHATEVER
WE WANT, I'd sign up for that straight away.
