   I think it's a dumb idea. People should be able to do whatever they like with their property.

   Not really, Microsoft spent money to develop it, and they don't want people ripping them off and pirating the games.

You've already purchased the console and they have your money. Once it's yours than you should be able to do with it as you please.Microsoft doesn't care about the game makers making any money as they don't have any input on that. The ones who are losing out are the game makers not Microsoft.

   Well, Microsoft does officially publish some games. The main reason they do not want people modifying their consoles is because of what may be able to be done. Things such as modifying or pirating games, hacking Xbox Live, etc. Even though people may not have done all of this, they could, in theory.I agree that it is crap. I paid for hardware to do with as I choose, but I guess if a company is straighforward with what the consequences could be, they can do as they please as well.
