I'll let my friend know he should probably turn off CoD.

Yes Sony stonewalled 75 million PSN users for 6 days before finally telling us that our information may have been stolen. Run your credit reports and put a fraud alert on your identity if you have a PSN account.

http://www.annualcreditreport.com

Sorry Sony, between pissing away your market share post PS2, the UMD, the PSP Go and now this, you've lost me. Since you don't have a lock on the Blue Ray market anymore I don't need a PS4. I'll gladly pay for XBox Live.

If I am a subscriber to Netflix on my PS3 is that the same thing as having my credit card account on my Playstation account or is it separate?

No worries my friend. Surely someone has done that for you by now.

Sony hasn't been able to to tell if card info has been stolen but I would say no in your case. You pay through Netflix and the only way you link your account to PSN is by email and password. You don't access your Netflix info through PSN, IIRC.

I did find this worth a chuckle though. Sony's stock values today:

Bahahahahah. And thanks Kwesi, that makes sense. (Though I DO need to log into PSN to log into Netflix. But yes payment and credit card sign up is with them. Stupid, really.)

Another nail in the coffin for Sony, they've proved once again that they can't be trusted.

yup. secret installed rootkits, anti-copy codes fudging up CD frequency response, proprietary formats no one wants to adopt, and now this.

I knew there was a reason I no longer patron that company.

I'm thinking it's a great time to invest in Sony . You know the stocks go climb when they announce the PS4. They may not be the best company but they aren't going anywhere.

THIS!
Sony reminds me of the thing at the end of Akira...gobbling up the resources around it and turning whatever it touches into a terrible cancerous mess.
