A disc cartridge is essentially a solid/sealed carrier for an optical disc. Like an old 3.5" floppy disc but larger. They're intended to protect the disc media from scratching or finger prints, but it could be a way to thwart pirating. The cartridge, in this design, is an integral part of the unit. You can't just set a disc in a tray or slot opening, you have to use the cartridge. If you don't have a cartridge, because it's a pirated copy of a disc, you can't play the game. Because Sony has a patent on the design of the cartridge, they'll likely be able to shutter any company offering knock-off cartridges. |
