| Crazymann said: You can all hate on or talk up any side you want. The bottom line is that there are NO totally unselfish actions, ever. Even if you ostensivly get nothing from doing good, you have the feelings of gladness that you have from doing the good deed. Please don't say that you never feel happy or proud when you do something good for something/someone without expecting reward, because you are lying. The best you can hope for is not to seem like a smug, self-righteous idiot. Basic human nature.

I've seen that logic before and it's the most idiotic ever. Unless you gain something material from it, it ain't selfish. There's a clear cut difference between a million dollars and the warm glowing feeling in your heart and you're just being cynical if you refuse to acknowledge it.
Not that I disagree with what you were initially saying. It's rather disappointing that Sony gets more praise for suing a hacker for a million bucks than it does for making a charitable donation.
Regardless of random ulterior motives, good job, Sony.
