Looks like some interesting things are on the horizon for PS4 users, at least according to Tidux, an industry insider that is known for having leaked many details about the UI of the PS4 before it was disclosed, and that kept a very solid track record since then with his leaks.
First of all, looks like the endlessly requested option to change one’s PSN nickname may finally be coming (Update: Tidux mentioned afterwards that this feature isn’t in the upcoming 1.7 update for the PS4, so it’ll probably come afterwards):
To those of you who do not like your PSN name, things are looking brighter #PS4

Secondly, looks like some of the developers working on Sony Vegas Pro lent their aid in improving the PS4 video suite for an upcoming update .
Speaking of video editing, it’s some of the guys behind Vegas PRO who helped with latest update, I understand they have found some handy and good solutions.

If you’re unfamiliar with Sony Vegas Pro, it’s one of the best non-linear video editing software suites available on the market. I use it regularly, and the perspective of its developers working on the PS4′s video tools would definitely be a boon for the console.
Of course, as all the information coming from insiders, all of this should be taken with a pinch of salt, but considering Tidux’s past reliability, things are indeed looking bright.

I think a year is too short a time, but if they cleared out accounts that have been inactive for 3+ years, I think it would be a good job.

I agree with some people here. If Sony sent emails to accounts warning that if they don't sign in, their account will be removed. Having spaces would be a nice addition. I'd love to see the ability to change your PSN name.

sorry but if you haven't logged on after a year then your not going to on that account simply put they should force a rename but let you keep your stats on what ever you played. They do this on mmo's after a month of being inactive on some so a year is being kind

And you guys can sign this petition, if we get an ass of signatures I'm sure we'd atleast get a yes or no answer.

Some people are in the army and are gone for longer than a year.

They should do just what Microsoft did a few years ago. MS a few years ago purged old accounts that hadn't been logged into for a set amount of time. Sony can do the same to free up names.

I wouldn't mind paying a few dollars to change my PSN, but they should offer everyone ONE free name change. Once you use your free one, everyone after that costs something like 5 dollars, just like XBL.
