I think you're likely correct that GP will appear on both systems in the long run. I'm not sure that it'll happen in 2021 though. Nobody loses in the deal, so it's just a matter of reaching agreeable terms.

Dont know about that. I know there lot of people here who complain about backlogs. But I dont think thats the norm. Ofering all thouse games and the regular gamer will probably buy a lot less of the other games. 

At the end of the day, if XB games end up on PS via GP, then there will be almost no reason to buy an XB, effectively giving the whole market to Sony.  Sony also will get some amount of the GP revenue. Meanwhile, MS gets tens of millions of new customers for GP.  

As for GP subscribers buying fewer games.....  That would stand to reason.  But, if everyone is buying their games for PS, that will certainly offset that.  Then there's the GP revenue that Sony will get a piece of.
