I doubt Sony is wasting their time with their own launcher.

It's DOA no matter how you try to sell it.

How so? If a PlayStation store opens which allows consumers to exclusively access PS5/PS6 digital library on PC through this launcher, then that seems like a recipe for a ton of success. Especially if Sony were to start to sell their first-party titles exclusively through their launcher (once it’s big enough).

Sony won't sell their content only through this launcher. That is a disaster waiting to happen mostly because there's not nearly enough first party content to make this viable from a maintainence or consumer perspective.

The biggest issue here is who the audience for this hypothetical launcher is? And I doubt there is a large enough audience on PC with high-end PC (which I asusme is not that high to begin with) who will want another launcher just for Sony games. I'm not convinced. 

Epic had to be incredibly agreesive to get a foot into the PC launcher space. There's no way Sony is going to follow that playbook, which makes the decreases the value proposition imho.
