With the PlayStation Network being free and all, Sony figure that the $50 you’re spending on Microsoft’s online service is $50 winner55 wasted. Why not put it to better use on the items on the following list, meticulously hand-picked by Sony’s most frugal, thoughtful PR types?

Rather than paying a $50 subscription fee that competitors charge for on-line services, PlayStation Network users could put that money towards a variety of content.

* PAIN ($9.99)

* Elefunk ($4.99)

* Guitar Hero Classic Rock Track ($6.25)

* LittleBigPlanet™ Metal Gear Solid® – Level Kit ($5.99)

* Episode of Afro Samurai | Season 1 ($1.99)

* The Dark Knight Movie ($14.99)

Sony, we appreciate the fact we don’t have to pay for the use of the PlayStation Network. And appreciate that, since we’re not paying for it, you have to get your money back via other means. But telling people to forgo Xbox Live’s mostly excellent multiplayer service in exchange for a Ligne Roset Alster Chair and some basketball boots probably isn’t the best way to get your point across.
