PlayStation loses chipping case
Quote:
Sony has lost a legal battle in Australia over the modifying of its PlayStation games console.
The High Court has ruled that chipping the console so that it can play imported games does not breach copyright law.
The ruling ends a four-year legal battle between Sony and a supplier of so-called mod chips, which bypass regional controls on the machine.
In the UK, the selling of mod chips was ruled illegal in 2004.

Oh Yeah!!! Kick Sony's Butt!!
Corporations need to be brought DOWN!!! They rape the working man for a buck and it's about time they got told NO! If they would wise up and bring down prices on CD's, DVD's and Videogames this "bootleg" problem wouldn't be anywhere near what it is.
Power To The People :D
