Don't worry. If Sony stop adding features to their consoles becase they find it too hard to obey the law, we can always buy different consoles. Or play on the PC. Sony, in its arrogance, seems to forget that it is they who rely on the customers, not the other way around. I forsee Sony coming last in the next generation too, if they don't start respecting their customers more. |
He isnt right, but please lets place thing in perspective. All company take bad decision at some time, its not a reason to nitpick on those to make a global statement. Particularly considering that Linux is one of the least use feature of the PS3. Add to that that its possible to keep Linux unless you upgrade to the new firmware update. With both condition you get an issue affecting a very very low percentage of the customer (surely less then 1% but I dont have an exact value).
Now, keep it mind it was remove because it was proved to be an hole for pirating. So, the result you get is a situation that is greatly exagerate by a certain vocal minority who probably arent affected to begin with. With that said, I understand that the few legit user using Linux as well as new game requiring new firmware update want some kind of compensation, and they should have it...
