Don't worry everyone, you will still be able to play online, this change is merely a name change! You aren't required to change your ID or password, you will not be affected.
The PS3 and Vita will receive a System Software Update that will introduce a new TOS (Terms of Service) before users can gain access to the Sony Entertainment Network.
Sony is currently in the process of sending out e-mails to all PSN users that will alert them of this new change. Here is an example given in the source.

If this rumour is definitely going to happen, I have nothing against it. The name doesn't change anything for us, everything will still be the same and to be honest I will keep using the name PSN because I'm used to it. Sony are just trying to "establishing a global comprehensive network platform" which is honestly fine with me.
thanks for reading, sorry for the sort of mis-leading title!

That'd be hell. Some people have brought up concerns about Sony merging their services like this, though. If all accounts end up being linked, an Anonymous hack could be wholly more destructive; targeting multiple of Sony's services in a single blow.

I think everyone will get used to it in time. "SEN" isn't any more difficult to say than "PSN". But I agree, at the moment, it definitely sounds different and less appealing than PSN.
