Some valid points. Some hyperbole.

MS opened my eyes to never buy a product from them ever again.
Pretty much. They've proven throughout this generation that they can't be trusted.
Sony proved all last gen that they couldn't be trusted, yet millions are still going to buy a PS4. lol!! So I don't see any difference here. Cows are blind to how Sony screwed them last gen.
Sony might have screwed you over, but not me. If you're talking about PSN getting hacked, it didn't affect me because I don't play bro games online enough to care.
Microsoft on the other hand, started the 360 generation with high quality exclusive JRPGs and then stopped getting them all together. Then they all but stopped getting any quality exclusives, focused on Kinect and then tried to pull that crap with always-on internet with the One, and would have stuck to that nonsense if it weren't for Sony and complaining gamers.
We all have different preferences and the things these companies do affect us all in different ways. You might still like and enjoy Microsoft, and agree with what they're doing, but I just can't. Therefor I'm traveling a separate road without them this generation.
This thread needs this...

1. You can't go on the internet, check emails, use Youtube, or any Netflix style service that you already pay for. It's a paywall, if you have to pay to access features then it's a paywall, no way around it.
I'd like to interject here and say you actually can. Use Google Voice for your phone calls and texts and you can use Wifi for internet which includes streaming from Netflix/Hulu/Amazon Prime etc.
That's all I wanted to add. :)

Using Google Voice is equivalent to using an tunneling service to fool your Xbox into thinking it has system link. Both are undesirable methods. Some phones will let you use a wifi without paying but the entire appeal of using internet on a phone is to use it mobility, even when you aren't in range of wireless network. It kills the entire shtick and you may as well be using a Laptop or tablet.
