Then what does it have to do with pirates? Putting UMD in the NGP would have been a gigantic mistake, so I don't see how pirates had anything to do with it.

Destroying the sales of the original PSP. To Sony it would just be a wasted effort because not that many would actually utilize the drive. Also hackers would probably just start the entire process over through the drive.

I'm not following you. What I'm hearing you say is that because piracy took away a lot of sales from the original, Sony decided not to use UMD for the NGP. Am I on the right track? Because using UMD for the NGP would have been really stupid on Sony's part, regardless of piracy, so your sentiment doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
