Yoshida from sony told the media numerous times after the ps4 launch that there would be no drm in the ps4. They had never thought about it. They had asked sony before microsoft even revealed the one because the dev kit details brought up rumors that the one had drm.

Sony embarrassed microsoft at e3 because they never had plans for it and wanted to teach ms a lesson in how to treat console consumers. Jack tretton said they had nothing against the used market and did not want to step in the way of it because thats what th consumers wanted. You can look all of this up. The rumor was ea dropped drm on their games because microsoft made a deal with them to use azure to put a paywall on used games. This wouldve turned people off from used games. That was the rumor and sony decided not to side with ea but rather to stand between consumers and ea without taking Sides.

Yep. How soon things are forgotten.

And what was most forgotten is that nintendo was the very first to give a big NO to drm.
