  1. Comment - Sony Rootkit 'Fix' Brings More Trouble

    (Nov 16, 2005 - 3:50 AM)

    Let's see, you pay good money and buy a Sony CD. Sony, assuming you are a thief, prevents
    you from ilegally copying the CDs by secretly installing malware onto your computer. You now know about it, try to clean the malware on the Sony website and Sony now makes your computer completely open for viruses, spyware, worms and whatever that is bad to infest your computer.

    And all you wanted was to pay money, as a good customer, for a legal Sony CD that you wanted to listen to.

    It sounds to me like we should stop buying CDs, particularly Sony CDs, and get our music some other way (digital downloads? Or P2P, bootlegs, etc ...?). Hey, even if it is not legal, at least it should be safer.

  2. Comment - Sony President: Rootkit of No Concern

    Another Dilbert management type. Why should the users care?! Sony is sneaking behind the backs of people and installing cloaked software on their machines. And these are people who are buying their CDs, who has a legitimite case for creating digital copies for their own use.

    I hate the music studios who are acting like Sony is, are we being pushed to consider getting our music the "easier way", bypassing the CDs altogether?
