The more competition the better, yet I'm really surprised Sony would allow a competitor to it's own PSN shop on Playstation systems.

I mean, if I understand that right, that it's pretty much a separate PSN store on amazon, I can't fucking believe my own eyes 0_o
Why in hell would Sony do this? That's amazing for the consumers but Sony just made competition on their own playground :D

I don't think Sony cares what amazon does with the prices as long as they get their usual share.
|
But wouldn't they get less share now? I mean, we have a new party now, someone needs to make less money. Sony was a monopolist, and since you still need a PlayStation device to play games that you buy, it could have stayed that way and you had to buy from Sony's PSN store.

Amazon already sold digital PSN content. I don't think much has changed they just have a store now and are able to use promotions to encuorage customers to buy several games at once.
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
