Thanks for explaining the significance of life time sales. Aqua can you share software attachment ratio. Initially XBO was leading in it. Is it still or not?

The last time I calculated the lifetime-to-date NPD software-hardware tie ratio two months ago (during March 2016 NPD) it was 5.2 PS4 vs. 5.3 XBO.

I'll have to recalculate it again soon because Uncharted's release may have pulled the PS4 slightly ahead.

Oh, that appears closer then the attach rate I remember (which I think was last year, post-H5 release that you also gave out IIRC).

That difference does not seem that significant to me but I'm not well versed in attach rates. Does that difference hold much meaning or is it largely negligible?
