Hello all. I got some cash from family while visiting for the holidays and was thinking about getting one of the PS Plus plans but wanted to ask some advice here.

They say they are all currently on sale but I know everything seems to always be perpetually on sale at the PS store so I wanted to check and see if right now was the best time to buy or wait?

Also, is it really worth the difference between the Extra and the Premium?

Thanks in advance.

Usually ps+ has each year a deal on black friday and days of play (summer). Seldom inbetween

Thanks - that was the other thing I was wondering about.

I just took the Premium. Game streaming (Just play instead of downloading 150GB for a big titles) Demos!

Ah okay I missed that and had to go back and check. So the premium has streaming and classic titles.

Would you mind giving me some feedback on how well the streaming works (and how long it takes): So when you go to play a title - like the example you gave where it is 100-150GB, does it redownload the entire game each time, etc.

Also when it says classic titles - what do they have? PS1/PS2 or what is listed there
