A “highly-placed source” has leaked to VG247 that Sony is planning to reveal a for-pay PlayStation Network subscription model at E3 2010.

Though the service’s free subscription won’t be affected, the premium subscribers would get a free PSN game each month with the ability to choose between “two to four” titles. It will reportedly cost £50, or about $70.

In addition, a streaming music application will be announced during Sony’s E3 presser. There’s no clear indication whether this will be included in the paid subscription or will be accessible to all PSN users.

Cross-game voice chat was ruled out as a potential exclusive feature to paid users. The source was certain that “there’s nothing in the premium package which will gimp regular PSN users.”

Hey, does everybody remember the hurricane of leaks leading up to Sony’s press conference last year? Just saying.
