Ok, more from the Sony front.
Let me first say this: If Sony is wanting to commit suicide they are def on the right path. In fact, Id say they already have the wakizashi plunged into their collective stomach's.
1st rootkits, then the ridiculous EULA, and now they want to stop the trade on used games?

So now, not only have they made it passing easy for malware and hackers to remain HIDDEN on your computer while doing hell knows what they are beginning to screw with the gamming world.
"A PATENT may allow Sony to ensure that no game would be playable from any console other than the one in which it was first read."
So what does this do if you dont want to spend 50$/60$ on a new game, or to ppl who wanna pop by a friends house to have some good multiplayer fun?
"However, Sony would apparently prefer that all of you out there who have gone through any form of bankruptcy didn't listen to their music."
This... I really cant even comment on.
And finally:
"...Sony BMG's content protection, which only requires that the hacker add the prefix "$sys$" to file names."
What hacker isnt going to take advantage of that?
And they call pirates a drain on society....

Seriously! what makes them think they can stop me from taking a video game to a friends house for some fun. I will NOT be purchasing a ps3 if something like this happens. It's EVIL. Never did I think I would be calling Sony Evil, but hey! If the shoe fits

Anyone looking to cleanse their system of the Aries (Sony) Rootkit, go grab this little tool from Lavasoft (the makers of Ad-Aware):
Aries Rootkit Remover
I've heard it works, though I have no use for it. (How do you infect someone who hasn't bought a real album in the past 6 years? ;)
I'll tell you what's even worse than this--the whole Blu-Ray/HD-DVD fiasco:
Next-Gen DVD Copy-Protection Debacle:
Hollywood screws 3 million HDTV owners, sucks in general.
Anybody who invested in a big fancy HDTV is gonna sh*t their pants when they read this.
