if thei loss money for each sold PS4, and they are selling lots of PS4s, then the loss is bigger.

That is the point , though we do not know how much they loose on each PS4, also depending on how much software they sell that could offset the loss /per system which by online software sales, we have no idea how much sales or profit they are making.

The fact there is a trimming of sections over @ Sony but also investments right back into the company show its not clear cut. Like for instance lay off's but than turn right around and invest into VR technology, Purchase a new HQ in silicon Valley, Invest into more network developments to expand the platforms distribution across more platforms. All of that cost's money time and resources!

The fact that by spinning off tv, selling off PC and cutting 5,000 jobs will net over 1 billion/yr in saving's is quite a large sum for Sony, since they are expected to report a 1.1 billion loss, so imagine that 1.1 billion Loss gone now every year! from Now on
