What changed which make their existing line go down.
Costs go up, but they can’t raise the price anymore. This makes line go down.
Aren't they building the RAM they sell?
No they don’t. Sonys semiconductor subsidiary makes image sensors, not the type of RAM that goes into a PlayStation for example.
What they mean by unsustainable is that for the price it costs them to stock these means selling them to consumers at the existing price would not make any money, and the amount of money they’d have to raise the prices by in order for it to be profitable would stop consumers from buying it altogether.
Essentially, there’s no way to sell them to consumers in a way that will make money. Therefore they have to sell to big corporate customers in order to make any money at all. These companies are not lacking in corporate greed, but in this case there’s literally no other option.

Drivers and compatibility issues and such are much better now than they were 15 years ago, but at the end of the day you buy a console and you get a guaranteed 8-10 years of running every game with zero problems. Thats something we will never, ever get on PC. It’s just not possible.
It’s more cost efficient, and less of a headache to deal with anomalous problems like bugs and driver issues that can be as specific to your unique combination of PC hardware.
I recently bought RE Requiem and updated my graphics card drivers for it. They introduced a bug that would stop 2/3 of my GPUs fans from spinning at random. People who bought that game and played it on their PS5 didn’t have that problem.
Th prices of every component involved in making a PS5 have exploded.
The Brits want what America is having
Steam games are either on sale, or they aren’t.
But on the PlayStation Store, I can see a game is on sale and text my buddy who lives down the street about it, but when he opens the store it’s not on sale for him, only me.
Carbonara. Easy as hell to make, delicious and sounds way fancier than it is.
