PlayStation Network Expanding To Involve Other Devices

At CES, Sony's Kaz Hirai confirmed that the company will build out its PlayStation Network for use with other devices, such as televisions, Blu-ray players, and PCs. Quoting: "... the expansion starts next month with the availability of the PSN video store on these other devices, and Hirai explained they are constructing a mechanism to create a single user ID across the entire network (if you have a PSN account, it's good to go on any other applicable Sony device, and if you create one on another device, it'll work on PSN). And finally, Hirai also announced the formation of a new Sony division — called Sony Network Entertainment, Inc. — to drive this expansion of the PSN service into a Sony-wide network."

Re:Seriously?

I know we try to maintain a civil discourse here on /. (ha), but with all due respect, are you fucking serious? They denied the existence of the issue despite all evidence to the contrary; by the time they even acknowledged it was a problem, hackers were already exploiting it; and their initial "fix" to the problem didn't fix anything, and actually cause more security issues. I know MS fucks you just as hard as Sony does, but how the hell did this ever get modded insightful? It's a bloody console fanboy rant.
