nahh its just a matter of time.
Sony can own and put a pat number on everything they make but in time somone will find a way to create the peices we need to build a umd burner, like from a kit or somthing. Give it six months you will see places all over the net offering umd burner kits. for $250.00 +
I dont know if you will be able to order a pre constructed burner or not ,that might be illegal.
But who knows.
To all nay sayers out there.
Sure its not going to come in a pretty package with a 24 hour tech support either. but believe me there will be places in the dark seeded underbelly of the internet where such as this could be aquired.
