Sony wasnt humbled. They took the dive with the PS3 to save Blu Ray. It was a planned suicide mission in which they knew they would financially be bleeding.

Interesting theory.  Never heard it before but it sounds plausible.

Look it up for yourself. Blu Ray was going to get phased out by HD-DVD so Sony took the risk on the PS3 to put Blu Ray in it and keep it alive. They expected the PS3 to take massive losses. Kaz Hirai survived the plan, hence why he was promoted to president of Sony.
