>“At this point in time, we are not seeing any impact on our business. But going forward, about the content sales, a large part is already digitised. And therefore, as a result of the discontinuation of discs, we don't see that there will be any negative impact on our business. However, as I already said, the users, the players have attachments, and we have to think about how to respond to that feedback.”

>And so when we think about the future—and we put in a lot of thought and time, and we cautiously considered this—and we came to this conclusion, and we’re going to cautiously move this forward.
So basically as expected.
Sony isn't going to care unless they see actual meaningful backlash.
They're not going to care if people turn off their systems for a week. Turn off your systems for a month or two. Don't update your PS+ subscription.
