Ha a bought my PS3 slim and all my PS3 games Used.. Sony will never get my money! Bwoehaha

If you stop and think about it, Sony did.

A group of subjects (from now on, The Group) bought the console and the games for an amount of money. Let's just pretend it was for $800. Afterwards, The Group sold all of it to you, NiKKoM, at total of $600 dollars.

In this fictional case, we could state that:

Sony, Developers and intermediates received $800, of which NikkoM paid $600 and The Group only $200. It is irrelevant that The Group got to play the games before. They paid less money, not to keep the hardware and the software, but to use it first, to what NiKKoM happily agreed.

Stating that Sony won't get your money because you buy used is like saying that they won't get money out of any console or game sold in a store. They are intermediates too, just as The Group.

Hey how about I buy some PS3s, jailbreak then, then sell them w/ 500 gigs worth of games.  Oh wait...
