They also seemed to have announced the Death of Software, as purchased content will not transfer over to the new console[1].
Edit: This comment came off as more trolling than intended. My point is that it's fantastic that they're focusing on software and services. However, they're simultaneously indicating that software and services are to be disposed with along with the hardware. My hunch is that consumer expectations have moved on from this due to services such as the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and to some extend Netflix and Rdio.

the console also isn't backwards compatible, so that's hardly surprising.
