Sony will not take the BBC to court.

Reasons

1. The BBC lawyers are very very good. Everything they transmitted will have been OK legally under UK law.

2. The BBC are hugely influential worldwide. Taking them to court would produce a bad press headache that would be comparable to LBP having a level where Sackboy urinates on the Koran.

The show is sensationalist but it seems to work and often forces companies hands.

They also always follow up stories. This will not be the end of the matter.
Expect a lab test on YLOD PS3's in a week or two attempting to prove an inherent fault.

Scoff all you want but these shows carry weight.

Anyway. If they prove a design fault and force SONY to repair all YLODS free of charge thats a good thing....RIGHT ?
