I see MS and Sony dropping it (for now), hence "on hold". Way too much push back from the end user, they now fear it might stall the adoption of their new consoles at launch. I say they will suspend it until the next gen user base is big enough for them to force it on us, but for now they know they need to get their new and most likely pricey hardware off the ground with the least amount of resistance as possible. Once next gen gets to the point where the end users are heavily invested and there is no turning back, they will try this again. As always i could be wrong. |
That's actually a very good theory. It makes perfect sense, both companies are going to play the "good guys" during launch and launch window, but after a year or so they will implement the DRM stuff. Evil geniuses!
