Interesting thoughts around the idea of giving access to the user. It reminds me of the argument to do with copyright, or should that be copyleft?

It is slowly but surely starting to happen - homebrews are becoming available, online or Xbox Live in particular being a great example. And why not, who says you have to be an official Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo games developer to be able to make cool games for people to play?

Allowing home made content seems a more organic idea to me. Ok, it could be abused by people just making rubbish, but then again, it could also turn into a gold mine. Let creativity prosper!
