Proprietary memory cards are used to counteract piracy. If you recall, the piracy on the psp was inexcuseable.

Shirley, you don't believe that excuse.

They used a generic memory card for the psp and look how that turned out. The same happened with the wii and will happen for the Wii U. Clearly this was a problem so they fixed it with the Vita. I fail to see from Sony's perspective how this was a bad move. They are just protecting their product. 

The effects of piracy has been discussed to death so it's not going to change your opinion even if it's discussed again.

You say the new memory is to combat piracy. Let's assume that for now.

Are you suggesting that, keeping the price high is "protecting their product?"
