M$ isn't going to ban for running copies because people who run copies also buy extra content and xbla games so the most they will do is try and make it where the copy doesn't boot.

thats like saying they wont ban modded xboxes because the modders pay money for live

great work commodore.

MS will always lag the hackers by a good amount and so not too many should worry.

these posts seem very similar to the discussions around the bios development of the original xbox...

Im still in two worlds over this modification, yeah the modified firmware is great, I know 3-4 people who all owned Rainbow 6 Vegas on original and had there disc's split due to the "normal" usage in the xbox, but I also know people who have had there xbox's modded since and are running a backup copy and not had any problems what so ever, yeah piracy sucks, but microsoft make so much more out us of us via Live and "DLC", probably more than with genuine game sales, is it really worth it banning the people using backup's?

I hope so, but I sincerely doubt that the cat and mouse game is going to be over anytime soon. As far as myself repeating, those are my thoughts, and I did not look at anyones posts from last year while I was writing it. The firmware drive working with home brew is simply not true. As you need what is known as a Dev Kit to for the home brew. You also need the kernel earlier which most people at this point still do not have. I know my self dont have that old kernel. The drive it self can work with any firmware already given so you don't need the new firmware out later tonight is what im saying. So home brew to me is certainly not here yet, especially to what we are all looking for is to the broad public, not to those people who have thousands of dollars for a dev kit and tons of money just to waste. In fact its still no where near here yet. Were not even at a glimpse.
