Yeah I buy music, I buy software and I'm also an MCP (Microsoft Certified Profesional). But what Sony have done is simply wrong. To install a peice of software on the system without someones knowledge is abuse of power.

If there had been a warning and agreement screen then, maybe, that would have been acceptable. I have to ask Jon, with your defense of Sony DRM do you think that spyware is fine? I believe that what Sony did was directly compariable to what spyware is and does.
