Sony's £449 PlayStation 5 (Disk) hardware is now profitable - Is Xbox Series X?

Negging

Digital games are more profitable for Sony as they eliminate the material cost of game sales and cut out several middlemen within the world of game distribution. With digital game sales, money is no longer lost to game disk/packaging production, and both Sony and game developers will no longer need to share their profits with retailers. Beyond that, there is no used market for digital games, eliminating another way that Sony can lose revenue.
The price hike to £70+ per AAA title is certainly a big help.
Negative I know, but it's a big price increase in one generation.
