Subscribers to the Playstation newsletters got the following e-mail this morning from our friends at Sony.

As an update to the PLAYSTATION(R)3 News email sent on Friday, October 24th, the special invitation to PlayStation(R)Home’s closed beta is available only to Qore annual subscribers who purchased subscriptions by 10/29. Qore Episode 06 purchasers will not be eligible for the special PlayStation(R)Home beta invitation at this time. We apologize for the miscommunication.

Lets read between the lines here. In order to get the “closed” beta code you have to Purchase a subscription to Qore. That’s not a closed beta, it’s a pay-to-play beta. I am not opposed to it but Sony should label this properly. Also, when was the last time you paid to be part of a Beta program?
