It would be a gigantic mistake if they didn't release Morpheus on PC. There is a ton of potential in it. If I was Sony, I wouldn't be limiting an amazing piece of technology to just the PS4.

Unless they will have a hefty profit per unit, what is there in it for Sony to release it for PC?

Firstly, let's not forget that Sony does make PC games also. But to answer your question, I belive that the casual audience Sony should be aiming for doesn't own a gaming console. It also wouldn't hurt to release the headset onto as many platforms as possible, that includes support for television as well.  Other companies will start popping up and Sony has a chance to lead the market.

I've said it so many times that I have to add it as a sig: VR isn't just about games.
