Besides, it is convenient having your entertainment devices contained to one unit, but the shit does wear out faster!
Sony doesn't have the best track record for equipment reliability either. Early PS2 models were plagued with issues, mostly about the DVD drive. I doubt Sony has learned their lesson.
Not to mention Blu-ray should never have been invented in the first place. We could have avoided format wars for the rest of the forseeable future, but Sony had to go and screw all that up.
