The argument that once you buy something it's yours to do with it whatever you please is really good. But the world isn't black and white, Sony isn't making a lot of money on PS3 sales, and they made a huge loss the first years. They offered us a great and powerful machine for less that it cost to make it and we should be grateful for it and respect their strategy as a company.

Now this hackers are trying to completely eliminate Sony's strategy and by releasing hacks that enables any user to play pirated content, for which obviously Sony doesn't make any profit.

What do we want? Do we want that companies like Sony to stop releasing consoles and good developers to stop making games for it?

It's not the same as the music, film or TV industries since those can make money from other sources, but videogames are pretty much screwed on piracy, specially for smaller developers.
