The Sony thing is old news. it is in no way a change from the current model that is deployed. I'm not so sure why people are latching on to it now. Users today have to pay for online passes if the publisher does so.
I do a ton of offline things on my tablet. every user is different. Especially games and thing with my son like flash cards and learning tools that do not require you to be online. Again every user is different.
I think this about sums up what I am trying to say about M$'s policies.

Some will accept them (the policies) some don't. I personally will HAVE to accept it if I want to play titan fall or any of the xbox exclusives. I don't have to like it. The response to Sony's announcement is an indication how the market feels about it.
I'm not bashing the system itself just company policy. I sit on both sides of the PS3/Xbox 360 fence now and own both and still play both. I will in the future.
