Default Firmware crashing b/c of non-licensed software
I'd like to get a PS3 solely for the BD capability (I'm a non-gamer), but also would like to install PlayOn to get Netflix streaming abilities.

But I've heard that when gaming consoles update their firmware, they sometimes check for non-licensed programs and will crash the system if any are found. For example, if a PS3 update finds a non-Sony program the PS3 may crash for good. This is only what I've heard, is there any truth to that? I know it's true with Nintendo and MS systems, but has anyone else had issues with the PS3?
