Tbh its not used by alot of people with most not even knowing of or understanding how to use it. I think it was a bit of a marketing gimick to tbh.
The reason for removing it is like said already in this thread for security reasons. The PS3 has been the console that was secure from pirates. They want to keep it this way. Just as they are starting to really get a grip on the market the last thing they need is a percentage of their customers pirating their games instead of buying them.
You only have to look at the PSP to see why they don't want the PS3 to go down that road. I think its a perfectly understandable move to take and can see why they are taking it. There will be alot of moaning by people who didnt even use the feature just for the sake of it but it will eventually die down as things like this always do. I do feel a little sorry for the ones that genuinely did use it though.
BTW Hiroki are you enjoying your PS3 ? Does it get much use ? Did you purchase infamous, Thought's ? That was what this thread was about lol.
