I mean I can abandon HDMI if not for consoles to only supporting HDMI output. Like how many people still trying to rip dvd or blueray through a console??
I have comes to realize it was never about piracy it was about control and always has been. It was not about about real lost sales but shareholder perception of potential gains if they had full control.
They look at Apple and wish they had the same amount of control. Piracy is the small minority they point at to distract people when they take away your freedom to do what you want with the property you pay for.
You think they are thinking how much they could get if they did away with piracy. What they really are thinking is how much they could make if they could make your purchase obsolete the moment they can sell you a newer one to juice this quarters profits and lock you into a ecosystem that you can’t leave.
This reeks of the media industry pearl clutching due to piracy which is pretty hilarious because it’s not hard to rip content and will remain so
