Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only thing this update "broke" was the ability to access the store, right? Sounds like an improvement to me. It's interesting that everyone is cheering this on after gleefully shitting on Sony for forcing use of their digital library.
With both stories, the real issue is the illusion of digital ownership with drm'd media. Wasteful plastic discs don't solve that problem, and neither does perpetual access to a proprietary copy. These people were given a chance at freedom, but instead are suing to be allowed to keep not owning their media.
