next-gen.biz have an article up about the class action lawsuit that is being taken against MS for bricking 360.

The one thing that I didn't understand was the lawyers argument;

Quote:
"I'd be very concerned if I were a lawyer representing Microsoft suggesting that there would be a way to entrap people to download software simply because they've modified [a system] that belongs to them,” Kabateck said. “There are two issues here. First, that's your property. You bought it, you own it. If you want, you can climb to the top of your apartment building and throw it off and break it on the parking lot.


How is the related to modding your hardware / MS trying to stop you, if you did throw your 360 off the top of a building you wouldn't expect MS to fix it for free, you'd have to go buy a new one.

It might be because I'm from the UK but I don't get this whole suing everyone for anything that seems to happen everyday in the US.
