I sincerely hope Sony didn't lose too much money on the PS3 Slim launch.

The idea is to make it up on software sales...and DLC to keep Home PSN free.

Do you really think I don't know that's what they're hoping? Did you even read the OP (not counting the second paragraph that I just edited in)?

Yep...I was reinforcing what you posted, and amplifying it with the DLC as well.  Sony is treating the PS brand as a package, tying PSP and PS3 thru PSN.  At this moment, PSN is free, and adding more features at a cost that Sony has to de-fray thru some means.  I just didn’t recall you saying anything about DLC before, so harm dude.  I don’t know what kinda cost modeling Sony has been doing, but we will see the results in the spring qtr.  With the launch of a Halo game, M$ EDD will mostly likely post a profit, and Nintendo will of course do the same as usual…so Sony is going to be under a microscope if they can’t for that reporting quarter early next year.

PSN is not free.
