Strangly eough I have an original xbox (which doesent work anymore) and a goodly stack of games but not one of them required a 'live' connection.

But yea this is a good example of what happens when you rely on an outside source to maintain YOUR content...

My brother has my PS1 which was bought when it was released, never dusted = works.

I have PS2, bought when it was released, never dusted = works.

(and not to mention the memory cards that have been gathering dust for years and the controllers that have suffered inhuman conditions in both mine and my brother's hands = all works)

In the assumption that you're being serious...then YES!

All online activity through the PSN or PS3 is 100% free. No subscription, No online charges and dependent on your locale, free TV services, free music video streaming....the list continues.

I only know of one caveat to this and it's not Sony's doing.

Gran Turismo has a pay per view TV like show but that's Polyphony and not Sony.
