sony is starting to sound like an an asshole these with their decision with the memory. it would awesome if i could switch memories with someone to play his games. Only the software then should be account bound so they would prevent sharing and such methods. it would be confusing to elaborate further because then I would need to tackle the whole software ownership subject

Buy your own damn games.

I hope this was being sarcastic.  Sony is essentially saying that you aren't allowed to lend out a game that is theoretically yours.  The fact that it is digital, and not physical, is immaterial--you bought it and if they don't like what you're doing with it, well, they can go cry because you own it now.

Not that Nintendo's any better--3DS and Wii downloaded games can't even be moved off their host system at all without a lot of hassle.
