Well, you're entitled to your opinion but it doesn't make a lot of sense to me because the ps3 is for a different audience. You pay more and you get more. If you need those features then the price isn't expensive (i'm refering to the price in germany, uk seems to be a joke on his own). If you don't need them, go for another console. Doesn't sound this complicate to me. Secondly you have no idea if you think that Nintendo doesn't want to be in control. They all want to be, no matter if it's Microsoft, Nintendo or Sony.
Oh and don't forget Apple here for the future...
