    Not really? The format is well documented. Whether it is possible to include some sort of exploit depends on the client you use to play it, and if so, I doubt Microsoft or IBM would be the ones to do it.

      Yeah Sony is much more likely!

          I bought one of their phones after how much people rave about them. Cost me more than the equivalent Samsung or iPhone. It was a piece of shit with a shockingly mediocre camera considering Sony make the fucking sensor. Only good thing about it was the power button thumbprint scanner and even that’s a monkey’s paw feature because Sony having the patent is stopping anyone else doing it.

            Meanwhile I think mine is a pretty good phone except for the side-facing fingerprint sensor, which is straight up incorrect and shouldn’t be done.

            Then again I consider an audio jack to be an important feature and smartphone cameras as something you can safely skip in the feature matrix. My needs are somewhat unusual.

            The fingerprint sensor is still bad, though. It’s extremely easy to accidentally touch it three times while fishing the phone out of your pocket. It should require a second of contact before trying to unlock the phone; that would make it vastly more usable.

              I think your needs are more common than you think, considering i have the same needs as you.

              So, there’s a fingerprint setting i had to turn on since i had the same issue as you. you have to press the power button then tap the sensor to unlock it. It’s called “Press to unlock with fingerprint” inside the security settings.
