Yes they would, encryptions can be broken they have no way of knowing if the hacker has the ability or the tools or the will to break it 


By the time the encryption is broken the password is changed, and your work is null and void. There is no point in taking encrypted passwords. Thats why you encrypt the passwords. Also, it is known now that the data was un-ecrypted. Sony has admitted as much.

Where did Sony admit that? And the passwords could have just been stored in the same database which the hacker just mined for everything he could get doesn't mean the passwords are useful to him if he took them
