When you buy a console shouldn't you be allowed to do what you want with it? I feel a whole knew debate coming on.
Thank you.I'm sick of the American political process being whored out to big corperations to be used as a giant thumb on my head. In fact I'm pretty damn tired of the American political process period.

Forgive my populist rant. I'm a pragmatist by day, honestAmerica's government is a combination of Pluralism and Elitism.
On paper America's government is a wonderful thing.
Put into play, it bites the big one when people don't follow the rules (all of the time).
How does this even compre to filesharing? I was affected huge by filesharing in a good way. As a young video producer in 2000 Kazaa and Morpheus helped my company grow and make over 500 thousand dollars. It was an effective way for small buisnesses to legitly get their name out there and advertise. By the time RIAA got done doing all the bullshit they did everyone is now afraid...or the majority is afraid to use these services which now criples my buisness. Kazaa had a purpose other than piracy......and that was letting small buisnesses grow.What pisses me off the most about this whole huge-corporation-sues-small-companies-and-ultimately-destroys-them thing is that they're interfering with technological development. Which means they are fucking with mankind. Filesharing is ofcourse the best example.
I used filesharing as an example of when big companies interfere with technological developments - that benefits the whole of mankind - because it threatens their profits.QUOTE said:How does this even compre to filesharing?
Its not the BIOS that makes a mod chip illegal, its the fact it gets around the copy protection of the console.
