Oh no! It must have been doing really bad.

remove support for legacy devices, leave support for current devices (pc/ps4), makes sense to me, shitty for tv/ps3/vita players of course, but if the service isn't breaking even why bother?
And before anyone says it, yes they said nothing about if it is or isnt breaking even, but consider this, if it was, would you end a revenue stream that was generating you money, just because?, or would you cut it loose if it made you nothing / cost you more to run than it brought in?

Probably true. At least if they streamline it it might become better in a shorter timeframe. Still havent tried it myself, but I might do it just out of curiosity.

Sony just did streaming wrong from a price perspective. Entry proce should have been like Netflix and Amazon prime. It should be included in PS+ and should be available for 7.99$ a month as a base model.

Also it should be available on absolutely everything. But I guess focusing it on the Ps4 will add some percieved value to it if they improve it.

This means the Service is failing. It must not be profitable to keep those servers up for those products.

Good news though, this means that the PS5 wil not be a streaming service .

I wondered and questioned right from the beginning how that service would be profitable with colocation costs, port costs, power costs and bandwidth costs. Not to mention the typical infrastructure you have to maintain for running services in a datacenter.

But why?
Is PSNow ending or what?
I hate PSNow by the way, I wish I could just buy and download old Ps1 games on my Ps4 just like in the PS3.

Oh... that makes sense.

But still, I wish to buy and download Ps1 games in my PS4, like the Ps3 did.
