    • DivX On The PS3: Is Sony Selling Consoles or Sabotaging HD-DVD? [view article]
      Sony has many other DivX certified products. Adding DivX to PS3 is really not a surprise or an insidious plot.

      A Sony PS3 with DivX does not endorse piracy any more than a Sony Walkman with MP3.

      People can convert any video (including HD-DVD movies) to AVCHD for Blu-Ray players. Adding DivX support doesn't change things one way or the other.

      All titles are available on standard DVDs which the PS3 plays just fine, so consumers who don't need the HD experience already have easy access to all the "forbidden" HD-DVD content.

      DivX competes directly with Windows Media Video while Sony has no dog in that fight. It's not suprising that Sony is quick to adopt DivX while Microsoft is reluctant.
