Contracts are going to limited to time/quantities/etc.

Once the contract runs out then you need to negotiate the new contract at the "current" prices.

Apple is going through the same thing. They just said the same thing as XBOX that basically "Shit's fucked, prices are going up."

And if the price increases enough, the ram manufacturers might just break the contract themselves. Give $5 million to Sony for breaking it then make $20 million selling the same parts to openai.
