Could be total bull but just sprang into my head.
I have no doubt there will be major hurdles with the new system. It wouldn't make any sense to leave the backdoors open when they now know how to close them. However, the key again will be to discover what windows they left open.
Unhackable is term that should not exist...the question is how much time, and how easy will it be to accomplish?
"All drives should be updated to Lite Touch + (LT+) firmware if playing on XBOX live. Samsung drives and pre-78/79 Hitachi drives do not utilize AP 2.5. All other drives are considered to be detectable by Microsoft (YMMV). Make sure all rips are ABGX verified, contain SSv2, and patched AP2.5 (where needed). XGD3 must currently be burned on new drive with PC Burner Max firmware for 100% rip. All modded consoles can be potentially unsafe for use on XBOX live."
Piracy will always find a way, its big money, well sort of, first you have all the people who do it for the fame aspect within the scene (being the first to do this or that) Have a look at geohots hack for PS3, second you have the companies that make money from selling tools eg the connectivity kit, third companies want people to be talking about their games or their consoles, so leaving a "window open" eg iPhone means more people are bigging up their product aka word of mouth.
