Sony needs all the help it can get. So they'll be hoping for massive Nextbox sales. In fact they'll probably start out making more money off every Nextbox sold than PS4, figuring Sony will sell each PS4 at a small (hopefully) loss.

At 1c/disc and Nextbox hopefully selling an average of 100 million discs per year that'll be a cool $1 million per year from Nextbox disc sales. Should just about cover Kaz's lunch money.

The problem is that they have to give MS more money because of Android...

1. I thought Sony was still holding out.

2. Sony's Android sales are still pretty sad, so they'll probably come out ahead for a wee while.

3. It's still a revenue stream from Nextbox that did not exist with Xbox360.
