OK I think I'm going to be officially miffed with Sony with what they've done recently. Please correct me if I'm wrong. And let me be clear, there was no compelling reason for me to sign up to PSN at the moment so now signing up for PSN just for cloud saving is not value for money for me.

If I want to back up my hard drive I have to:

1. delete all DLC

2. sign up to PSN

3. save all copyright protected game saves to the cloud

4. delete all copyright protected game saves off my HDD

(4a. Delete game data?)

5. run the HDD backup utility

6. re-download all DLC that I need/intend to use

7. retrieve my cloud saves back onto my HDD

8. let the PSN subscription run out

9. run through steps 1-8 whenever I want to back up my HDD or upgrade to a larger HDD.

Screw you Sony.
