Mr Speck said material from artists such as Guns 'n' Roses, Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears, Pearl Jam and Linkin Pink had been involved.
Piracy in Malaysia (and countries like Indonesia and Taiwan) is already rampant anyway. At markets you can buy almost any software title you can think of for a few dollars (complete with inkjet cd-r label and jewel inserts:-).
I really don't think this announcement changes anything at all, considering there is already a large market for pirated software in these countries for educational (or not) use.
Well, Malaysia and Indonesia have always had a massive piracy "problem" anyway. So what the government has announced really doesn't change anything at all.
1. its a kids movie
2. you think that all 20 million people in this country have a big meeting to decide what movie based in australia will be next??
3. get a life, please:)
the "dvd-drive" itself is not specifically for movie playing
playstation games are recorded to dvd-rom's. i guess their reasoning behind this is that dvd's hold alot more and not many ppl can duplicate dvd's these days
as for the usb.. im not sure if the playstation has an internal modem or not but i guess they are for expandability, ie. modem/broadband/ethernet for networked gameplay?
correct me if im wrong, i havnet read much on the PS2

I was actually giggling at Linkin Pink, but you do make an excellent point ;)

this article is about sony and the playstation, not "Sony -vs- The World"
and nintendo never was any good
good idea.
then we can all download our music off napster and prove RIAA's own point.
next thing you know re-selling that "license" will be considered illegal.

perhaps they will make you sign a legally binding contract when buying a cd/tape brand new
