What are you basing that on?
They're getting what, $2 an episode? And $25 for an annual subscription. All Sony have to do is put a few videos, some information and a few beta's together to make a compelling episode. Fans of a particular game (Socom: Confrontation being a recent example) flock to the service when an exclusive beta is announced.
As for Home, it's undoubtedly going to have cost quite a large amount to create. Advertising will probably only help to offset some of the production costs, but then I think Sony are creating the service to entice new gamers to their platform, (which will lead to different sources of profit) but not necessarily as a money making project within itself.
