Honestly, there are a million sites that cover this type of material(and cover it right). Actually tell you what's going on.]]>Feb 22nd 2007 8:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/Feb 22nd 2007 10:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/
speaking of rom mark or whatever sony calls it is a form of securom, sony developed copy protection for pc afaik. by adding fairly precise variations within the specific of the disk format on the tracks, the rom-mask can check the signature from the physcial media which probably very difficult to duplicate.

i think this was added to protect specifically ps3 titles not movie titles

i think hd-dvd also employed extra in form of audio watermarks.]]>Feb 22nd 2007 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/
As for the upcoming "doom for PS3" posts, take in mind two things: 1. This is more or less just the first step to being able to play copied games. 2. More might actually consider the massive cost for a PS3 to be worthwhile if they could play backed up games.

Granted, game pirates don't help the market directly (not buying much), but they often aren't hurting it, either. If they weren't planning on purchasing the products in the first place, the loss or gain is negligible, but the additional users praising the systems give support to marketing for future buyers.]]>Feb 22nd 2007 10:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/Feb 22nd 2007 11:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/
but thats my bet because i know they watch the modding community looking for the next homebrew app to copy cat and implement in the next console

functions like video play back,and running operating systems yeah their watching

kinda like that time your friend stood back with the flashlight while you broke the window on that mercedes down the street]]>Feb 22nd 2007 11:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/22/brdgen-creates-playstation-3-disc-images/
'I sorta believe that the techies that actually develop the hardware and software want us to mod our consoles thats why they leave holes open they just want to make a it seem harder so they can keep on the good side of their bosses'?]]>Feb 23rd 2007 7:33AM
