Explain to me how having a television running a bloated OS (for a TV) and employs a control scheme that makes absolutely no sense in any other setting other than a gaming one. All that would do is make their TVS even more expensive (since you know, it takes more power to run an OS as resource hungry as the PS4's OS), and much more confusing to users.

"I just wanted to skip the commercials in my DVR'd show, and instead of a skip button it wants me to press... R2? Where's R2? Why isn't there a skip button like there is on every other brand of TV?"

See the reason Apple gets away with pushing its own user interface and control scheme is because it's intuitive. It works in a way that makes sense. Want to delete a file? Drag it to the trash can. Simple.  Pressing "R2" to skip ahead in a TV show only makes sense when you're including DVD playback functionality in a PS2 that only ships with a Dual Shock 2 controller. It certainly doesn't make any sense at all in a smart TV.

Wait, so the PS4 doesn't auto-log you in when you turn it on?  You have to manually do it every time?  That sounds awful.

They just started using it because MS tired to use it as good PR, but, more importantly, tried to claim they had the #1 gaming network because of their MAU.  Pretty arrogant of them, since they didn't really know other companies' numbers.  I guess they figured since it included 360, XBO, and Windows, it would be the largest.  Sony then released their numbers, which instantly disproved that claim.

I would just ignore him when it comes to OSs.  For some reason he thinks Sony should be foolish like MS was and waste money fighting in an OS war that has already been decided.  A war that was finishing up when MS pushed Windows Phone, and one that is definitely over with now if Sony got in on it.  For the foreseeable future, Windows will rule PC (unless they get greedy and try to force a Windows monthly sub) and Android and iOS will rule phones.

But it's even funnier than that! He wants Sony to put their Playstation OS on things like Car Stereos and Blu-ray players. For literally no other reason than "it creates an ecosystem" because, you know, When I buy a third party stereo for my car, one of my biggest priorities is "how well does this interact and share apps with my game console! I don't think I can buy a car stereo if I can't play PS1 games while waiting for my wife to run into a shop"

Next he'll be advocating Sony add a GPS to their PS4 because reasons.

Its huge number thinking in ps3, ps4 and ps vita ecossistem.

The Xbox does that?  You can't turn it off completely? That's weird. 

The only time I put my ps4 on standby mode is when I want to upload save files to the cloud or to download something when I'm not using it.

I'm glad for Sony.

The best place for playing, for 80m users.

So PS4 MAU is almost 3 times more than X1

Why’dthis turn into a flame war? Some guys seem to want to put their 2 cents in by adding that Sony counts them as “active users” even though they only use their console for Netflix or keep it in stand-by mode. Others seem to want to bash Sony’s competition because the aforementioned guys have said their piece. C’mon man! Seriously?!
