So 1-2 cents isn't that much  Also, Sony has made computer parts used in Windows PC's for ages so I just don't get where you are going with this. They make DVD drives, and before that they made CD drives. They also make some of the nicer desktop and laptop models for MS's Windows platform..... Sony and MS have always been benefiting from eachother.... |
Sure, they probably get an 1/8 or less of the optical drive share....but they get 100%of the royalties from the sales of the discs that's why I keep bringing up the point of the disc sales. Now, 11 cents per disc isn't going to hobble MS but it will be noticed, and it will be enough to help Sony.
