1. Not everyone thinks like that and some definitely will because they are more open minded and or have the extra income.
2. What does this even mean? Why would Sony think that, they don't even want to be in the market. Leave it to Valve and everyone else to think they own the market. They sold off their 1 branch who only did that with Sony online entertainment who they were with for a long time.
3. This isn't the scummiest thing to do by far since it's business. They didn't have to sell their IP and could have just refused and found someone else to fund and port it to PC. The more IPS a game company has the more worth and potential they have. You wouldn't call someone scummy for buying out a building for their business just because someone else wanted to use the building too. That's how life works.

1. You're acting as if it;s a definite outcome, like they are going to convert all PC gamers or make far more than MS despite the fact Sony has actually cut ties with the majority of PC gaming while MS is only just now getting back with what they abandoned for a number of years, they have a better shot than Sony will with a streaming service, that and you'll own your games and have proper BC options than a streaming service and well the other clients are better than Sony in general.
2. I don't want a streaming corp service on a platform that's designed to be open and not confined to a streaming service that stems from a console creator.
3.It actually is, by snatching up an IP that was owned by the devs prior you intervene and deny fans of the IP on other platforms or future ones in general and limit the scope of the game to just one platform and one audience than multiple. I don't care about the "it's business", there is more logical business decisions than simply moneyhatting IP's (you know something this gen and last that MS got rap for but apparently it's totes cool for Sony to do it, it's bad either way).

I never even mentioned anything about PSNOW, I care very little for it or what happens to it so 60% of what you said has no meaning to me. Sony doesn't even seem to want to put PSNOW there. They will probably kill it off like PlayStation Home.
As for the last part I just don't see it that way. The devs didn't have to sell off the IP, they decided to of their own free will. This isn't anything new since Sony has been trying to get any IP they like since the PS1 days. Which is a better deal because now a major publisher owns it and can make an even better and bigger game next time even if it's on 1 platform. It gets at least made instead of an indie studio having to find another way for it to be funded. Only real reason to be mad at it is if you don't own the platform which isn't their fault.
