@ Bod - excellent analysis.

I have said this for a while. I said 'With Sony removing BC, PS2 owners have few reasons to upgrade their consoles.' It does matter to them, especially with PS2 production slowing and the high likelihood of their PS2 dying, they would love to have the option of having a PS3 with full BC.

Sony should really, really reconsider adding at least software BC back into their console.

 

 

I agree with you on your last sentence, but they just won't do it though. 

It would be great to see bc as a firmware update.

That's the sad thing. I bought a PS3 with full BC because I still have PS2 games. Logic dictates if you want a person to come into your camp, you shower them with carrots. It's like offering an animal bait that they may or may not like. It's a risk. All I am saying is - if you want to catch a certain kind of game, give me several reasons to upgrade to your system. And for Sony, that's tossing in software BC, at least.
