It’s crazy to see Sony kill their golden goose.

It's clear Sony is a garbage company since at least the 2011 hack in how they conduct themselves. How they have treated so many of their studios terribly. Late implementation of 2FA. Treating people like shit with customer service if you were hacked, or need repairs. Can't implement basic features with each new console Gen. Can't be bothered to support their own goddamned handheld. On and on.

Even before that, considering the music division put copy-protection rootkits on CDs that often broke computers.

Remember when Sony promised PSN would always be free? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
