How dumb are you? They mean that things from their store have been downloaded more than 8 million times.



I don't care what ANYONE says, Sony has got their ***** together. Blu-Ray has pretty much obliterated HD DVD, and has sold tons of consoles over the holidays...And the lineup for 2008 is just crazy awesome. 2008 will be a good year.

» Always shocked....

By these download or PSN subscriber number's they always seem so low. 8 mil that 1-3 items per ps3, I have downloaded nearly 20 different things. It just shocks me, out of the number of people I know with PS3, only like half even have it online. I'm was talking to a guy at my job about downloading movies off the internet. I tell him 'you got a ps3 right, just burn your divx movies to a cd, or copy to a mem stick a play it.'

He called me later that night and said it did not work. He had never hooked his playstation to the internet, much less know about firmware updates. Lots of people don't even know you can download demos and such for free, it's amazing.
