Really, I don't think this will lead to as rampant piracy as everyone thinks -- the jailbreak dongle allows easy piracy, the 3.55 FW hack requires actually cracking the game executable to remove disc checks and redirect IO from
That just means the 3.55+ game downloads/torrents will already be cracked. Not everyone will have actual disc in hand trying to make a "backup".
Referring to the game purchase system possibly? signing in to PSN is required for multiplayer of all games (not insinuating that you didnt know this). Single player limits the replay value of games so multiplayer is a big factor to the average ps3 owner especially if they play games that are focused to online use. They could even take a page from Ubisofts book and put "internet connection required" on there games.
Replay value is irrelevant when it involves free/pirated games. If they start banning from PSN and you really must play online you would either: risk it and play on your modded PS3, get the 360 version, or get another PS3 for online play and buy the game. Those with banned 360s typically have another clean system for Live and buy the multiplayer game of the day (COD or Halo). It doesn't take many pirated games to save enough money to buy a new system (~5 @ $60).
