In any case it makes for interesting rumors.

The MPAA/RIAA (SONY) PR would have you believe that ppl don't care or know about DRM but this is not the case. Sony please stop screwing us all over with you lockouts and limitations of media WE own!
@ 21Q
do you even know what and who the MPAA are and how restrictive they are making all content, fronted by sony, disney and fox paid lobbyists?
