Pretty much all points presented in the article are valid. In Pakistan, piracy rules all so its no surprise that Xbox 360 is doing well. But its surprising that at the same time people are willing to pay to play online.
But really, you get what you pay for. For someone interested in Blu-ray movies, there really isn't a better deal out there as the PS3 works better than most stand-alone Blu-ray players. You don't get that with the 360. X360 also doesn't have built-in wifi. I have my entire movie/music library wirelessly synced to my PS3 whereas my PC is upstairs in my room. It doesn't get better than that. You don't get that in the X360, unless you pay $100 more for it. If you really start comparing now, an Xbox 360 with enough features to compete with PS3 is just as expensive as the PS3 itself. PS3 also has enough first party exclusives which kick ass. So it boils down to what the user wants. Sure a price cut would help a great deal, but it also offers alot more to the people who pay the price premium for it.
