At the end of 10 years I think Sony will make a profit if you consider blu-ray's victory and software.

This has come up before... I don't have the links at hand now, but if I remember correctly Sony would have to sell an insane amount of BR discs to every single human being in developed countries to even come close to recouping PS3's losses.

The royalties on movie discs are actually not high at all... nothing compared to game software. And even with game software, the PS3 has already lost more money than the PS2 made in profit.

In short, it's not gonna happen.

 

Surely you realize that BR royalties on movie discs are merely a part of the overall increased profitability that will be obtained by the introduction/victory of Blu-Ray.. Do you not?
