I feel like consoles are gonna face problems when products like Steam Machine become more available and cheaper. Ignoring the crazy hardware prices right now, I would gladly pay $100 more for reasonably worse performance if it means the console, which has the potential to be a full fledged computer, is arbitrarily locked to essentially become a machine that milks me for Sony Entertainment Ltd.
I can’t listen to music on my PS5 because I don’t want to use spotify. It has no browser, cannot copy saved games etc. Something like Steam Machine on the other hand lets you mod your games, has access to multiple storefronts including DRM free ones.
