Many people believe deep down that Sony was going to do many unpopular things that Microsoft got called out for (like force bundling camera, physical disc DRM, always online, 24-hour parole officer check-in, region locking...), just so they can justify all the anti-consumer bull that Microsoft tried to sell them as the future of entertainment. I guess it makes them feel better about themselves at the end of the day. And as with all beliefs, I have nothing against it. |
People like the whole two wrongs make a write to justify support for their product. Either way this wasn't made by ms to harm the consumer although the whole spying thing was a bit worrying. The bottom line is they have stopped major software support. I don't think ms believe this is a profitable venture anymore.
