Then there are those who like to game and will buy the version that has the best value in games and smart OS features. This is the largest single segment of gamers and what all three really want to reach.


We completely disagree here, among other places. If you'd been writing a decade ago, you'd probably have written "ability to play DVDs" instead, with the same result.

There are already a plethora of cheaper, better alternatives for your multimedia needs, and the number of such is only going to grow. If you're looking to a game console primarily for anything aside from gaming, ur doing it wrong.


You're missing my point.

People who want to play games will look at consoles over the other media players. However, they will also demand smart OS based content. That is my point.

Sure they can buy a cheap alternative and a dedicated console. But the dedicated consoles will now have that same content and it will be expected and demanded from consumers.... at least the large majority of gaming consumers.
