Nope. Though the PS3 helped Blu-Ray win, it was at the cost of Sony's console dominance, which has been far more beneficial to them in the past than the royalties from Blu-Ray are likely to be. There isn't a chance at all that the savings made from less pirated games would outweigh the fact that the PS3 will sell at least 50 million consoles less than it's predecessor.
In the end this was always going to be lose-lose or lose-win for Sony. It ended up being lose-win, but it remains to be seen if the win outweighs the loss. Given Blu-Ray may have won without the PS3, I would say that the trojan horsing of the PS3 was a bad idea. They lost billions on the console, won't make the kind of profits PS2 did, and spent hundreds of millions subsidizing players and paying off studios like Warner.
