couple that with the fact that in many markets comcast has a government granted monopoly AND they are trying to buy NBC and i see a whole host of problems.
Hey Mike...wanna file a class action against Sony? Its ripe for the picking....they have softly promoted that the PS3 can run Linux and they even stated that functionality would not be removed.
The new PS3 update removes that functionality AND its a required update forcing you to lose the disk space you allocated to "other os" unless you reformat and re-install
Lots of people mad as hell about it and the BBB and FTC are getting a lot of complaints...dunno if thats yer area but someone is likely gonna do it.

They basically discovered that the "other OS" area was being used to screw with the online game play, which was hurting the experience for honest people. The true value is in all those people buying games and paying to play online. They will do anything to avoid hurting that business, including pissing off the kiddies who were playing with the OS options.
