this is a push against piracy and I can't wait for it.

Great job MS!

 

Explain.

afaik there are some people downloading games and saving it directly on the HDD. Then connect the HDD to the xbox360 and play it from the HDD (u do not have to insert a dvd) but the 20 GB was not big enough so they used other HDDs to get more games on it. With the 120GB or 250GB, things have changed quite a bit.

I know there is this DVD-flash-stuff thing, which is kind of mainstream for piracy, but I read about this way too.

and from MS perspective: Why should you allow unlicensed hardware work on your console? you do not make any money with it and your hardware accessories won't sell. It is your product at the end of the day.
