I don't like the consolidation either but if you listen to MS it almost sounds like MS is saying if this doesn't happen Netflix, Amazon, or Apple will do it and no one will want that. I could be wrong though. |
This is my take on it as well. Companies don’t just sell themselves unless they need to for whatever reason. Someone was going to buy these companies and if it’s between MS and Apple/Google/Amazon/Netflix/Sony then I’d rather it be MS because at least then you know games will also come to PC day one, GamePass day one, and everything can be downloaded or bought at retail and played locally. With most of those companies, cloud would be the only option.
