The total number of Move only software titles sold is the only metric which counts. It is the only metric by which developers will use to justify further support over the longer term of 1-3 years and it is the only metric which is directly comparable to other platforms.

Why "Move only" software? If I buy the move now, it would be for Heavy rain, MAG, RUSE or RE5, not for Sports Champions. And the next ones that makes me intersted in it is Socom and Killzone, so all DS3 or Move games. And I'm certainly not the only one like that.
So? how is "Move only" software a metric of anything?

Buying Move only software is the only way you'll get Move games built from the ground up to support the platform. At the moment it is Move tack-ons and cheap minigames.
The reason Move only is a software metric is because it is the only software which will definitively tell us the size of the overall userbase.

Software sales cannot be use as a metric to calculate userbase, at least not in this case. Some userbase may purchase 2 games per month on average while others will purchase only 1. Just look at Wii userbase/software sold VS xbox userbase/software sold.
