Playstation is based on Linux, has nothing to do with RIAA , Hollywood or copyright paranoia.
I guess you never had the disk read issue because Sony shipped defective optical drives in the early PS2s. An issue which BTW Sony even refused to recognise, till a class action lawsuit was filed against them. All in all it took them till 2005, 3 years after the launch of their oh so amazing PS2, to finally do something. And don't even get me started on how they have shafted European customers of the PS3... I'm sorry to say this but, Sony are one the worst hardware companies in the world. They are over hyped, over bloated and very arrogant towards their customers. I don't care how bad MS is, Sony is in a league of their own.

Playstation 3 is even much better, the only competitor that can have is Microsoft XBox but without tooo many success and general aceptance.
I'm not sure if you are kidding or not, but let me just point out that the PS3 is basically running a castrated nVIDIA 7800. A DX 9 card which is already 2 years old. Compare it to something like this:

Which is Crysis, running under DX 10. Can you honesty say that any PS3 (much less PS2) game out there looks that good ?

That we can both agree on :)
