I was always a fan of sony but after their recent tricks I am officially done with sony products. How would you like to have a program installed on your computer without your knowledge sending informattion back to their servers and disabling programs on YOUR computer. That is the tactics that Sony is using.

I was never a fan of playstation anyways, I always thought that it sucked. I am also not buying and cds from the sony corporation. I ask you to do the same as if this is not stopped you will soon end up with a computer that dictates what you should or should not do.

I've got one of the bad cd's. I was able to get around the copy-protection and rip it to mp3 anyway, so I can put the original away and not worry about the rootkit thing.

I don't know how this will affect the PS3 yet, but I'm still planning on buying one. Hopefully, they've learned their lesson with the audio cd's and the oncoming lawsuits.

Somewhere I read that if you stick a tiny bit of tape to the outside edge of the disk, that it will become a single cd disk without ANY protection.

personnaly i don't see the point in any protection any more....

hackers/coders and programmers soon get past them some with in hours of the product being released!

so whats the point in spendng so much money and time on the security etc bumping up the cost of the product!
