Will piracy ever win over to the PS3

Blu-ray tech and the PS3 just needs to get cheaper. Right now it's too expensive of a process for them to bother with.

I don't know why people always come up with this. If the PS3 ever gets hacked, it won't be long until ISOloaders come out which start the games from the HDD. And even if you have to use Blu-Rays, most games use single-layer discs, and a single blank isn't much more than 3-4 dollars anymore.

 

Not that I support piracy, but I'm thinking logical.

You can't copy games on the HDD that easily because of the HDD encryption...

And you think hackers won't crack that, too? If the PS3 is opened once, everything else is just a matter of time. Look at the PSP. The first hacks allowed simple homebrews like Pong. Now we have CFW which allows ISO loading right from the Memory Stick.

 

My point is, once somebody hacks itself into the system, decrypts important keys etc., Sony is done for. The only thing they can do is to ensure it will never opened. And thus far Sony made a terrific job.
