online is the best thing about pso...if you think otherwise you have social problems
being able to meet new people is great fun, and making friends that you train up with is great
avoiding hackers/non-legits/fsoders is quite easy, especially if you have friends to regularly play with, because you can just go to any old ship and they can search you and then meet you...well worth the money if you ask me 
also, 150 dollars for 12 months isnt too bad.... seeing as the majority of people get bored of actually playing it after bout 6 months (if that). anyway most people get bored then come back to the game...
EDIT - Ria: Try not to double post again please ^_^
