    I bet they still get their seats... That's a prize they already won, it'd be like taking back monay you've already cashed out.

    No way in hell PS and FTP will ever "cease to exist". Those sites have just as many non USA players as they did USA players. So even if they chose to never allow USA players to play on their sites again (which I really doubt will happen), they will still be able to handle/pay whatever needs to be handled or paid with the US Government and still be able to stay up and running without going under.

    Yeah, PS is still going strong, they've lost maybe 1/4th their player base, that's not too bad. FTP took a bigger hit as they're somewhat smaller that PS and had a larger US player base, they're probably going to be fine though
