I wonder what ms actually pays. MS requires you to download a player if you want to watch bluray movies. So they aren't paying a fee on each disc drive. Also as time goes on less people are buying physical discs. I would imagine that is a dying revenue stream

I assume it's the latter, like you I can't see how Azure can provide PS5 emulation/streaming from existing server infrastructure.
It was my understanding the XSX SSD is 2.4GB/s (Raw), 4.8GB/s (Compressed) and the "over 6GB/s" referred to the speed at which the decompression block ran.
What is unclear to me at this point is whether or not the 4.8GB/s Compressed figure is a hard limit somewhere in the I/O pathway and the decompression block's >6GB/s simply provides overhead. Or if it is an average and the entire pathway can actually move >6GB/s end to end in ideal circumstances. I'd hope and assume it's the latter for the sake of Xbox devs and end users.
If it is the latter; I'm surprised MS didn't capitalise on it and state "2.4-6GB/s", or more honestly "2.4GB/s (RAW), 4.8GB/s (Average Compressed), 6.0GB/s (Peak Compressed)"..... saying that, their official spec sheet only says 12TF when they have 12.15TF, so perhaps they're playing it a little more reserved.
Regarding Sony and PS5, the way it was worded makes me pretty sure it's 5.5GB/s (Raw), 8-9GB/s (Average Compressed) & 22GB/s (Peak Compressed); that 22GB/s being peak end to end throughput in what are likely very rare circumstances and as a result of a limit in the decompression block. Cerny said "..the unit itself [kraken decompression block] is capable of outputting as much as 22GB/s if the data happened to compresses particularly well".

Now for a bit of levity, according to youtube closed captions -- while checking for the quote -- it turns out the unit can move over 5GB of crack a second; not to mention "format input data"..! =P

I'll finally get my girlfriend to like videogames!
Such a cooling system would be almost as loud as a PS4 Pro on the Modern Warfare lobby screen, almost..

any truth to this?

I doubt anybody here can say ay or nay to that, but it sounds fishy when MS managed to do 4k on XBO.
Stop posting every single piece of garbage you find on the internet in the Technical threads. This sort of trash doesn't even belong in the general baseless thread.
If you want to understand, read the Technical Thread about it to see how clueless the people saying so are.

Don't trust this guy. Bandwith is higher on Xbox Series X.

Moore's Law is Dead is known in the PC community as having a 25% track record. There is a 25% chance that this might be the case.
That tweet discussion ends now. this isn't baseless rumours. Future responses will be deleted.
Looks like something about next horizon game
It says internship begins in September and they want the intern to stay at least 5 months. February/March 2021 is 4 years after the first horizon. It seems logical for the release of the second part. And they had some ad job for vegetation artist saying before being updated this is for Horizon.
EDIT:
Vegan artist?
It is Happening At Last!! June 3rd it is!
