"To make matters worse, Xbox struggled to secure anywhere near enough memory with fixed prices necessary to keep its hardware margins healthy. I'm told Xbox is losing not dozens, but more in the hundreds of dollars per Xbox Series X|S console sold right now,"- Jez Corden 

That is nuts. After the price increases, it is still losing 100's of dollars on each console in subsidies...

This goes into the more than 20 billion investment in the past 5 years, and still losing half a billion in revenue annually quote by Sasha Sharma.

Imagine buying ABK for $76 bn. and using a extra $20 bn, trying to prop up the xbox ecosystem.... and revenue drops (thats almost $100bn total)
You basically burnt $20 bn for nothing... while your competition is saying "this is our most profitable generation ever!" 

How the hell did Phil Spencer, last as long as he did?
