And every time someone buys an X1 or a game for it they support Sony, since they own part of the Blu-Ray license. These companies don't exist in isolated bubbles. They frequently, both directly and indirectly, make money of each other's success. It's good business.

(On a side note i feel the need to mention that given the nature of this topic, and how quickly such things can spiral into shit throwing on both sides, i'm watching you all :D. Keep it clean).

I always love seeing your profile pictures. Different enough to be funny.

Isn't MS licensing Blu-ray from Sony?

And that's probably way more than the engine cost since every single game comes on a blu Ray disk :)

MS is also part of the Blu-ray association.

But everytime people buy an Xperia MS gets money (as with all Android phones).

Sure, Intel and MS buy tech that is easily replaceable.

I mean, why should Sony stop licensing havoc now?

They're doing it when they're buying Minecraft on PS3, PS4, and Vita too. MS has their fingers in lots of pies. This is no surprise.

Really? and if how?
