I wonder what the implications of this purchase will have in the future of VR tech. I always imagined Oculus purely as an open appliance/device like a monitor or speaker. If Facebook owns it, how would their business model affect future devs looking at this platform...

The plus side is that with Facebook funding, VR is definitely on its way soon, but at what cost? <_<
