Hi,

Unbelievable!! I am not into gaming so this does not affect me personally, but still if they do this (Sony making it illegal to sell second hand games as per cited link), it would be a gross violation of consumer trust and of ownership rules.

In the early days of Ebooks on the Psion and Palms the issues were more to do with file size and render speed rather than in page features and app features. But this is now pretty much redundant requirements on most devices, so we should be looking for a more generic format, HTML being the obvious choice. As Bob says
