no. the money is, always has been, and always will be in software. more software, more money. making it easier to buy software will only help.

Think about it, if Sony starts streaming these new games everywhere, what is stopping especially the bigger publishers to just say "we can do this ourselves", let's say EA, Activision and Ubisoft just start their own streaming services, that's a huge loss for Sony.

and what's to stop them from making their own streaming services right now? what convuluded logic do you have where sony creating a servics that gives publishers an easy method for distributing games to a wider audience on smartTVs and other devices makes publishers like EA and activision more likely to suddenly go it on their own to achieve that goal?
and don't kid yourself, a streaming services is a massive investment and going it on their own is almost guarenteed to not be worth it for anyone that isn't trying to get all developers on a service. no one, and i mean no one, is ever going to purposfully build a "go it alone" service.
