I dunno? Why do people say "I will never buy a ps3 or any sony product because sony BMG had DRM in some music cds which I never bought"?

People like to hate on sony.

Out fo all the bullshit reasons you could have come up with that people use not to buy SONY you hit upon the one that is very legit and a really good reason why people shouldn't buy SONY.

 

OT:

Natal is indeed a copy of eyetoy as much as the Move is a copy of the Wii, which is a whole lot. However the Natal project has more functionality than the Move has over the Wii.

I actually refuse to buy Nintendo because of Pearl Harbor.

Every company fucks up, that is no reason to ban everything they are involved with. Especially when SONY BMG is independant from the other SONY Companies.

Internet explorer was so bad and hackable that I now refuse to buy a blutooth MS mouse. That's the same argument too.

Did you sriosuly somehow link Nintendo to Pearl Harbor? Can you sep away from the conversation and read that sentence of yours again without laughing?

To contast that, your Microsoft example is also extremely laughable. They did not actively make IE hackable, it was a passive thing.

SONY basically infected PCs with a virus. They actively made it so.

If you can't see those distinctions you are beyong my help and I am done with you.

They did not infect the computer with a virus. They used spyware which was then hacked by outside sources as a trojan to infect computers. The spyware in itself did nothing except track what music you listened to and such. It was the passive effects that made it so bad IIRC.

EDIT: I forgot it was a rootkit. But still, the biggest problem wasn't the rootkit itself, but the door it left open to hackers.

As far as the connections go, it is just as laughable that you connect Sony BMG with SCE. They are two distinct groups. As distinct as Nintendo is from Japan, or IE is from hardware.

A rootkit is a program whose purpose is to gain control over a computer system.It has nothing to do with being passive, eve if it wasn't exploited it was the most retarded move ayone could have done, and still very damaging. Since you don't seem to know much about this subject I suggest you just stay off it,

However since you don't see your own fallacies I'm done with you. So just go on ahead and spread your laughable analogies, I'm sure someone else out there is dumb enough to believe them. Though I will save this quote "Sony BMG and SCE are as different as Nintendo and Japan" since I don't come across such "fail," for a lack of a better term, often even on the internet.

 

P.S. For your own benefit, and to avoid sounding stupid to others, Sony was 50-50 in with BMG, and now it is 100% Sony only.
