sony drm

(1/4) > >>

jhocking:
dayam, Sony is really going off the deep end with DRM technology.  Someone was just telling me how blu-ray discs can be locked to specific players (insanity) and then I saw this.  Seriously Sony, wtf?

I Am Not Amused:
I would definitely boycott any/all sony products if this were to happen, and I'd suggest that many should do it with me.

Spike:
Sony is going to end up shooting itself in the foot if it keeps up with this.

Se7en:
Well the Sony Rootkit (TM)  was a bit of an own goal to start with. Can you say LITIGATION?

SpacemanSpiff:
Obviously, I think the rootkit thing sucks. The attitude shown towards the whole issue by Sony sucks even more (installers don't work and require registration first, spokesmen say stupid shit).
But I hope this whole thing backfires horribly.

In the meantime, I have some good news for you all: There are tons of other CDs out there with that rootkit-copy-protection. The list.
