Shane Kim (General Manager MS Game Studios):
This really highlights the difference between us and Sony. Sony has a very hardware-centric approach. You have to buy the Blu-ray drive whether you want it or not... The fact that we're a software company gives an enormous competitive advantage, because we can add capabilities like this. This is totally integrated seamlessly for our users. .... That's a big, big difference when you talk about future-proofing and flexibility. ... We're in a much better position to continue to add capabilities, that's the big difference between the hardware-centric and software-centric approaches.
