What an unbiased channel.

Oh, and btw, it feels a bit pretentious to call that a "documentary".

Pretentious to call it documentary, perhaps, but the fact that a video about PS comes from a PS channel doesn't make it unsuitable to be shared. I don't see the problem.

It can surely be shared, you can share anything you want.

The video is very well made and is open and honest about the good and bad things Sony did. I presume most being snarly in the thread haven't even watched it. 

The video doesn't directly lie or provoke console wars, but it subtly uses rhetorical strategies that are biased in favour of PlayStation. For example, when talking about the Xbox One, the guy correctly points out that Microsoft fucked up. When talking about the PS3, though, he always puts Sony as the victim, never admitting that they fucked up, but instead saying that Sony "had an expensive console" (as if an outsider provided a really expensive console to Sony and they didn't have any power over it) and other things like that. And when he is not able to defend Sony, like when someone in there said that you should get two jobs to buy a PS3, he blames it on the individual person, instead of in the person representing the whole company.

It's not nearly as bad as some other channels, and it surely is a great video for Sony fans, but I wouldn't be so quick as to point it as an unbiased documentary.
