That's one MS decision I think most people agree with :-)

I hope Sony get absolutely flayed in the courts for this. Not only are various people lining up to do them over privacy invasion etc., it also seems they used LGPL code in their stuff too ;-)

Apparently it is safer to use cracked Sony CDs originals because
Sony's anti-piracy code can damage your Windows. Unless you are using
Amiga or Linux where it doesnt work at all...
