Everyone downloaded games, movies, even programs. Hacking was rampant, but that's Sony's fault imo. Sony patched everything so you can't do it anymore without jailbreaking. They are artificially limiting the capabilities of the hardware so you will pay them more money, or at least that's the view of Anonymous and many others.

Epic facepalm....
