Start making servers with the intention of giving every PSN user 100gb of space. Now you charge for that space. Say $20 per year for 25gb of space. $35 - 50gb. And $60 a year for 100gb of space.
What is this space good for? All of our data. At anytime a PSN user can send everything on his system to this Sony cloud he's paying for (20gb, 50gb, or 100gb.) If he has more data on his local hard drive than he is paying for he'll need to delete some stuff or be allowed to select what he wants to back up.
Now his saves, game data, games, PSN downloads, friends, everything at all, is backed up. He can sell his PS3 now, in a pinch say, and then re buy it later. This too increases the likelihood he'll buy new and not used since it could be after an upgrade or some bundle or who-knows-what.
