Im a Sony fan but even if I dont use "otherOS" I cant agree with a business practice like this. Please note that we didnt pay for PSN and they will not force you to remove "otherOS" tho. I agree with you on everything else. Even if I dont use it, im somewhat dissapointed to loose that feature to keep PSN. Also surprise theres a lot of people justifying this as easily.

Okay true, they aren't holding a gun to my head screaming "DO IT!".

But it's a choice between that and plahying my games online...a choice which I have to make...and one that should have never even existed.

Totally agree with you ;), this choice should have never existed, they shoudnt remove something some of their customers is currently enjoying. But even worst, the risk is far from justifying this either. Its very very low considering blu ray rips, internet bandwith (to downloads whole game) will refrain most person to hacking on PS3 + theres no hack at the moment that let you do anything bad for Sony. Slim doesnt even have "otherOS" anymore. At least if the risk would be very important I would understand, but its not the case. They would be better taking the risk to loose a bit of money from hack then shitting on the customers that use the "otherOS" function. You have my simpathy, I would be as mad as you if I would be using "otherOS".
