Sony wants to keep its closed and proprietary ecosystem, because it can't expand it beyond PS, OTOH MS wants to expand its own everywhere, because it never abandoned its idea of a proprietary whole internet.
Both visions are closed and proprietary, but MS one is far more dangerous, just because MS has the resources and a wider existing ecosystem, outside of consoles, to try and carry it out. Luckily Android and iOS can prevent a global MS monopoly to happen outside of PC, because if Sony and Nintendo were the only obstacles, they'd be either crushed or marginalised.
Minecraft new offer is just a little creepy move if taken alone, bust it must be framed in a far bigger and more worrying picture.
Neither Sony nor MS are innocent, but MS is more dangerous.
