There is no chance the Insomniac will move multiplatform, Sony would be willing to buy them out if they had to, or to pay for the exclusivity, Insomniac do not have to move platform to get high sales. Ratchet has sold decently, and should move to 1m eventually. Resistance is over 2.3m, which is extremely impressive on the PS3. Resistance 2 should sell even more. Insomniac will stay PS3 exclusive (until PS4)

 Except the article hints that they are interested and they have no intention of being bought.

It's true they don't have to move to multiplatform to get more sales but multiplatform still means more sales which means more money which in the end is what it is all about. 

He doesn't hint that at all. He clearly says they don't have the bandwidth to make multi platform games and in Insomniac's case multi platform might not mean more money as they will lose majority of Sony's money and support and they are not a publisher. Which means they will have to find one to publish their games multi platform. I'm sure Ubisoft, EA or Activision would step up but that would also cut into Insomniac profit who would then have to stand on their own rather than have Sony support pillar to rest on.

Also, Insomniac don't own the Ratchet or Insominac IP's so they would have to create something totally new as Sony would never allow an IP they own to go on a MS or Nintendo game system.
