    Online game subscription revenue declines as sales of virtual goods rise - latimes.com

    please click the link above for the article. But to summarize: profits from paid subscriptions to online videogame services will fall. Microtransactions (virtual goods) will grow and past them.

    DC Universe announced a change to a free (limited) service with virtual good sales. Buying $5 of virtual goods will unlock more features while a premium subscription will give total access.

    Sony's DC Universe Online now a 'freemium' game - latimes.com
