Rumors have it , that just to increase the PS4 optical drive to playback cost per dive would have increased to an additional $15.00 to $28.00 per drive!

Microsoft really surprised everyone out the gate with UHD blu ray implementation in the Xbox One S!

Well if you think about it, the original Xbox one HDMi chip was not a dedicated HDMi controller at all it was grouped and included into the South bridge ..but the S on the other hand has a dedicated hardware HDMi controller, and its a real good one , like the PS4's HDMI controller chip.

 

Here is the Xbox one S's HDMI controller
