Be fair, they changed the word 'component' to 'feature' in the second paragraph!

Yeah 7 million have downloaded it, but how many frequently use it. I am one of the 7 million that downloaded it but NEVER used it after that.

I downloaded it...tried to work out what the point of it was...decided there wasn't one.

Now it is just clogging up my damn hard drive until I get round to deleting it.

Oh no. I do hope not. I downloaded it, played with it a bit, got fed up with it and deleted it.

Clunky system, long load times, inconsistent connection issues. I hope never to have to go back to it again.

It's slow, cumbersome, dreadfully boring and the few people who DO hang out there tend to be absolutely horrific.

Sony should stop posting money into this dead horse and get cracking on PS2 backwards compatibility instead - that would actually add some value to the console.

Why does everyone live in the same flat in HOME?
Would HOME not be better if everyone had an individual flat around the dock? That would make it more interesting?
How about being able to take one of the boats out of the dock and go fishing! Yeah fishing it's slow, dull, and hardly anything happens... a bit like HOME itself!

Home is utterly pointless, I don't like it so please do not make it a essential part of my games!

It will also mean, if the actual Home world gets much bigger, that those of us with 40GB PS3's will have to upgrade the hard drive to fit it all on.

PS3Home was am ill conceived idea from the start and is like everything Sony are doing at the moment (i.e. Making a mistake, refusing to admit it as a mistake and throwing money at it/force feeding it to the people hoping they will change their minds).

What they really need to do is get rid of Home and spend their time and money or releaseing more PS1 and PS2 games on PSN. Cost cut by losing the dead weight/earn more money in downloads. Simple really!

Consensus of opinion here from all us true gamers (hence we are posting on this site) that home is a bit shite! I have downloaded it. Been on it once or twice while waiting for a game to install to HD on my 360. The red bull thing was ok for 10 minutes, no more than that and the rest of the things there are pointless roaming around game areas watching people dancing etc. This will never, ever be a part of my gaming world and I for one will never buy full priced download only games. I want something in my hand for my dosh! Sony really need to get a grip on the home nonsense.

They should just have gone the simple format line, I downloaded it and just could not be bothered after a while so deleted it, Live (although not the same thing in some ways) is so much simpler to use and thus highly functional

Live and Home aren't even remotely similar, how can you compare them? It's like comparing Windows to Facebook.
