All PSN+ does is give you discounts on downloads, as well as give you early access to betas and a few other exclusive trinkets, all of which add on the the original online platform.Network Passes make it to where each copy of a game comes with 1 free code, which lets you access the multiplayer features. This is to help with used game sales, which don't give developers any money. Sony is not the only company doing this, Microsoft is starting to do the same, and PC developers have been doing it for a long time. Don't worry, playing online is still free. The only extra money you may have to pay in the future is a $5-$10 charge for a game pass, and that's only if you buy the game used.</blockquote>
