No. He's pointing out that PSN, beacuse you can self publish which you can't on Live, allows very small developers to take the least risk.
On Live (and PSN too I'm sure) only a small number of titles sell well, most don't as he points out.
If you have to have a publisher then your odds are worse as you need to sell more to make the same amount. Or you get MS to publish but have to commit to exclusivity - timed rather than full so far as I know.
Rather like the way MMO's seem to be struggling with Live at the moment it's down to differing terms which for certain developers/genres seem to favour PSN. I've no doubt there are plenty of developers/genres which favour Live so it's simply a case of horses for courses.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
