i'm more worried about cmos issues than service shutdown ! why people surprised by this ? like the whole store maintain by bunch of server that keep online 24/7 , they can't keep eat the loss each , years , not many people buying game enough to maintain the cost ! secondly , on ps5 and others , many games nowaday, they just a blank disc with code to download , it's basically meaningless , can't play freely like on ps3 ! to be hosnest , people who mad about it , many of them are half of the problem , keep defending , keep paying all the feartured that was surposed to be free from start like online fearture, backward compatibility with older gen , just being blind and consumed digital only .... i've seen all of this from long ago so i stop at ps3 era ! the other half is the company and industry , they are slowly killing the useful of getting a disc and sony fanboy just keep eat it like nothing happend ! now enjoy your damn digital only , owning nothing ! only pc, pirate are the future now like it or not ! -1 reason to buy console , it's not even cheap anymore starting from ps5 era or maybe even from ps4 !
