More changes at PSS1. The email I got today says:

Since we announced that ProSiebenSat.1 Games acquired Aeria Games we received a lot of questions and feedback from you on our forums and social media channels. Today, we would like to give you an update on what to expect within the next months.

Starting in July your accounts will be transferred to our new single gaming platform for PC and mobile, aeriagames.com. Of course all of your acquired services and currencies for these games will stay valid and will be transferred as well.

...

To reunite the European and US communities and to bring the Player Studio to the European players Sony Online Entertainment and PSG decided together to migrate all PSG accounts for these games to SOE. Of course all of your acquired services and currencies for these games will stay valid and will be transferred as well.

I think it likely the SOE Player Studio thing (which includes contributors being able to earn real money from it, once you've registered properly for tax purposes) is what tipped the balance of SOE taking the accounts back in-house.

Great news for silly scrubs who didnt have old SOE accounts that they maintain.
