I knew this, and I already boycott them, for a few years. It all started when I tried to put a Sony audio CD in my computer. It installed shit without my approval, and I've had a hard time to delete it. Some time later I did the same thing with another Sony CD, same shit. And some time again later, identical. Now, no way a Sony CD, CDROM or DVD gets into my drive. And by extension, no official and legitimate CD either. Finished. For ever.

I agree, they clearly went way too far here. Boycut them.

If this is true, then they are illegal at all to release this whole thing.

GNU Licenses strike again. Haha. :D
