theyre missing the point, sony looses money selling the hardware and makes money back by licensing from developers to put their software on the console.
if all the software is free sony cant charge licensing fees and they cant make back any money that they had lost selling the hardware. we may loose software innovation, but we gain hardware innovation (point in case: cell processing). software innovation is best left to home computers where no licensing fees need to be charged (microsoft actually pays people to put their software on windows and then package it saying "FOR WINDOWS! HURRAY!").
