Xbox Game Pass subscribers way ahead of PS Plus tiers, says Sony in latest attempt to make itself look small
Do you think Sony’s new PlayStation Plus setup is decent? Do you think splitting the tiers into Essential, Extra, and Premium was a wise move from the Sony tacticians? Well, your thoughts aside, it seems the public reaction to the new subscription service hasn’t quite made the impact Sony hoped it would.
As part of a new development in the messy enquiry into whether Microsoft should be allowed to acquire Activsion Blizzard, the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority has published Sony’s response to the authority’s Issues Statement, and it revealed quite a lot of important information about the subscriptions arms race the two platform-holders are engaged in.
“Game Pass leads PlayStation Plus significantly,” Sony writes in its reply to the CMA. “Microsoft already has a substantial lead in multi-game subscription services. Game Pass has 29 million subscribers to Xbox Game Pass console and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, and is expected to grow substantially in the future. The multi-game subscription tiers of PlayStation Plus considerably lag [behind the numbers for Xbox Game Pass.]”

Netflix’s Ad-Supported Tiers May Not Support Offline Downloads
Between its massive market share and rising subscription prices, Netflix is having to look for other ways to gain and retain viewers; one of the most talked-about is the possibility of an ad-supported tier. If you’re used to watching your TV shows and movies offline, though, you may need to keep the more expensive, ad-free subscription, according to a report from Bloomberg.
Initially spotted by developer Steve Moser, code in Netflix’s app indicates that offline downloads will not be available for those on Netflix’s ad-supported tier, leaving the option as a perk for ad-free users.
Last month, Netflix said that the service’s ad-supported tier or tiers might not include all content.
