Would it make sense for Sony to add an UHD drive in 12 months?

Please, stop these naive "milk maiden calculations".

In 2-3 years the "PS5" will certainly have UHD drive anyway. I guess...

Now take a guess how well the adoption of a new format is going to progress.

Oh yeah in 3/4 years when ps5 comes out a UHD Blu-ray player will be very cheap.  Sony will still want their ps5 to play physical games so I think it's safe to say they'll include a 4k player.  4k blu ray market might be more than tiny niche by then and be worth there while too. 

Yes, 4K will be more popular  in some years. I think that a 4K TV was the best selling item in the USA's last Black Friday.
