The complete article: http://www.maxconsole.net/?mode=news&newsid=32770 Sony have recently made changes to their PSN terms of use, notably adding terms and conditions for user generated content. No doubt, this is a legal precaution leading up to the release of LittleBigPlanet, obviously there needs to be guidelines to allow Sony to define and take action again inappropriate content. But what really got my attention were some of the rights Sony have concerning your generated content? You also authorise us [Sony] and our affiliated companies, without payment to you, to license, sell and otherwise commercially exploit your User Material Seems someone's trying to win the console war.

That'd be irritating if they start selling your levels without you seeing a penny or cent of it when you created those levels for free distribution!

That's kind of lame but what did we expect?

I think they probably mean more on the lines of using people's levels in tv ads etc.

Then Sony have still got your money from you buying the game. They wouldn't care. If the servers weren't getting used, they'd take them down.

This doesn't worry me. You agree to the EULA, this is what you get. I doubt they'd take down your levels to offer them as paid DLC, because you can just download any user-created level you want anyway, people could already have them on their HDD. You make levels for the enjoyment of it. Sony owns LBP, and all the tools you use to create your levels anyway. You didn't fund the creation of, or distribute the game, so that's how it works out.

I couldn't have said it better. This is just pure technical jargon. As someone said before, they probably have a whole marketing campaign ready that involves showcasing user-created levels.

They could also just compile all the best levels and sell or offer a dlc pack or display them as "look what an average joe made" commercial, website or whatever. I doubt they'd just rip off the people who took the time to make something really cool. Time will tell.

If they sell my 'user made' content, Ill just publish the level again making the paid DLC useless.

Who cares, when I'm not profiting from any uploaded levels anyway. All I want is to have my levels played and enjoyed. (Oh, and a UK RELEASE DATE PLEASE)
