Yep its got its own hide away now. Its been Around since version 2.00 they just hidden it away as the free service is due to end soon.

Some thing I missed was the count down timer for updates and non back ground downloading of files from WWW PSN or LAN. ;)

The service was launched as a free trial for the PS3. After the trial ends on May the 10th the filtering service provided will require a fee to continue...unless they extend it again.

Its very sneaky if they do decide to start charging soon as its still saying get it free when you go to the page throught the brower's security settings. Misleading I think.

Seeing as there are BIG letters saying trial ends on MAY the 10th on the very first web page :) .
Its not realy that unfair :D you've had the service free for well over a Year ;) for nothing, its been extended already beyond the first trial. Not bad for a baby sitter realy :p:. Remember Sony T&C for the PS3 put the supervision of sub account user 100% in the Master account users lap :rolleyes:. Any thing goes wrong for that sub account user the Master account is to blame even on the web browser :shocked:.

I havent had, wanted or needed it. I didnt say it was unfair I said it was Sneaky as some people may be fooled by the get it FREE part. Its only if you read the information at the bottom of the page that it tells you its ending. So at the end of the day its not really FREE at all its just a trial.

Also am not sure why your telling me about the Master and Sub accounts ? I know Sony's T&C's am propbably one of the few who actually read them. As the PS3 is mine I would expect all responsibility to lie with me anyway regardless of the accounts issue. But thank you for the lecture you have suerly put me in my place now. I will consider myself well informed and Told.

Lol no its nothing like that. Its just an optional extra for people who wish to use it. Sony have already said that PSN would remain free a couple times now so it would be silly of them to go back on that imo. Maybe they will charge on their next console but for now PSN should be safe from forced fee's :)
