The answer is already in the OP...More install base = More profit..they don;t make much off hardware. More software, subs = more progit, also, they recently trademarked a new ps4 model, could mean they have already got the manufacturing cost down.

That is not necessarily true. Yes I get that a larger install base means more profit in the long run but if the loses are too large when trying to gain marketshare, then they may have trouble recovering those loseses if they are too large. Also more losses isn't something that Sony needs right now. 

Maybe, maybe not, but that decisions is being made by people whtih a lot mroe credentials and intimate knowledge then you or me. They losses won;t be large, sony is no longer going to be taking large losses on ps4....Again, manufacturing costs go down, so does price, sony made the ps4 with quick cost cutting in mine. They have recently trademarked a new smaller PS4 die size, that usualyl means cheaper.
