There is no truth behind the DRM claim. End of 2012 a patent entry surfaced that was the base for speculations. But...

A) Sony gave a clear answer to wether they will integrate the system or not in Feb. 2013

b) market for used games in Japan

We will never know for sure however Sony did change the Ram size from 4gig to 8gig and went to GDDR5 once they realized the X1 had 8gig of Ram, so taking out DRM wouldnt be too far fetched either if the rumours were true.

Either way, the PS4 is the safest console to release this gen focusing mainly on traditional gaming while the X1 was trying to market as an all in 1 box and the WiiU trying something incredibly new for a home console.

Both Nintendo and MS failed to market there consoles and not only failed but backfired, Sony than used the bad press to boost there own marketing for there console. The X1 and WiiU had arguably a better line up of games going into there first couple of years and even having debatably a better line up couldnt sell the consoles. Sales come from majority of the marketing. The better you market something the higher the chance of selling more. Especally when you have no competition this boltsters the sales even further.
