"Sony sell the only Blu-ray player worth buying but it's cost them $3.3 Billion in debt/losses and even so they are reporting weekly sales of around $8 million - maybe up to $12 million on a good week."
So you take into account the loses for the PS3, but only accept the income from movies? Not to mention that for FY2007 Sony racked up $3.5 billion in profile and erased that initial investment debt. So going forward, that $3.3 billion is no longer a factor. In Feburary, in the US alone, the video game industry racked up $1.3 billion. $235 million of that Feb. windfall belongs to Sony.
Sure, Blu Ray can still fail, but try not to fabricate things in your haste to rip Sony to shreds. I think you hate them a wee bit more than is healthy.
