Everything Sony has to be matched to Sony; the memeory stick, their MP3 players have to go through a Sony software transfomation to download music, voice etc. I prefer things that play together without having to force them to play nice. Now with the rootkit problem I am even more weary of Sony and now BMG, of which I will never buy any more music even it I have to just listen to radio..Sony/BMG goofed up and I think it will take a while to rebuild public trust, unless people enjoy taking chances ruining a computer that probably has much needed infomation. I don't prefer to take chances and yes I read the EULA's and I have declined to download some software because of the EULA. I may not be the brightest bulb in the pack, but I have not went out yet either. It sould teach Sony a lesson by lost sells and show other software makers that you can't play around with the hand that feeds you; the consumer..
