what is different in

a) buying a studio, nailing down exclusivity to all their titles and overseeing working practices?

b) paying for "exclusivity" to a 3rd party?

BOTH involve "moneyhatting"... one involves control freakery....


And like I said in the other thread...buying studios is the ultimate moneyhatting move, imho....which sony did ALOT of in it's heyday, now they want to whine about it.  Look at the strong arming tactics they applied to Japanese developers to secure exclusivity, or put them at risk for NOT being able to develop for their console...complete dick move...please Sony, enough with the sad songs.
