I don't understand the thoughts of Sony executives, but I guess I'm just not exec material. This will only lead to a decrease in sales, probably a substantial amount, both from people being literally unable to play it, and also from people now refusing to buy it. So what, pray tell, is the advantage to it? Do they think they'll get more back from selling people's data than they'll have lost in sales?
