In absolute terms I'd say many, not that many compared to Netflix and streaming users (at least in the countries where those services are really viable). But the point is another. Sony (and Playstation) always played an active role in the introduction of new formats (since there simply aren't other TV devices that move as many units as PS consoles). Blu-rays and DVDs weren't that much popular as well at the time they released the Ps3 and the Ps2 respectively. More than a reaction to the market, they deliberately decided they don't care that much about blu-rays and they want to focus soley on gaming. Of course they're free to do so, but at the same time it's perfectly understandable some users aren't exactly happy about it. |
They moved away from that with the PS4. No CD player, no media server capabilities and it was an amazing success.
