Then came the whole Sony root-kit debacle. And Sony had always been notorious for proprietary formats (ATRAC anyone?).
Now the Blu-ray Disk Association has announced their choice of DRM.
Blu-ray makes unexpected, three-way DRM choice for high-def DVD
Sony used to be a company that could engineer good products. Now they are a content creation company that is using their engineering side to attempt to protect their content.
I will no longer even consider the possibility of a PS3.
Edit: and of course, I just noticed the date on the article 
I'll have to dig around and see if anything has changed... |
wow forget ps3. After rading that and the price I am not even interested in it anymore. How much more freaking greedy can these multi billion dollar corporations get?
Nintendo Wiiiiiiiiiiiii for me!
