there will be a high-profile class action lawsuit, lawyers will get paid. those that 'bought' content that got deleted will get a $10 voucher for more digital content.

When it comes to lawsuits, companies just look at it from a economic perspective.

How much will it cost to do nothing

How much will it cost to do something and pay for the change and pay off customers as little as possible.

They don't care about what is right or wrong, what is moral and what is not, what laws to follow and what laws to break ..... all they care about is either saving money or making money.

If they could justify crushing hundreds of little puppies because it could save money for the company .... they'd do it and launch a marketing campaign to tell us all that it is acceptable.

Would the puppy crushing machine be next to the orphan crushing machine? The company will need to at least one to maximize profit.

Its not their fault, why dont you ever think of the shareholders!

If there was a way to maintain or increase profits by running both machines .... they'd run both machines

btw: do you type faster aroused or when flaccid?

Ha! Every one of their customers agreed to an arbitration clause and, I bet, even protects Sony from this exact situation.

Remember you don't own anything. Just a license to use the media however they see fit.

Piracy ftw!
