This is the actual solution. It was always a terrible hack to rely on IP 
addresses as an identifier and that's especially true for gaming 
consoles where they can use some pre-built identifier burned into the 
box. With browser fingerprinting it would be silly to incorporate IP 
addresses into the mix as DHCP from providers changes up the IP address 
reducing its fidelity.

This is clearly a Sony et al problem. Providers should point the finger 
at them to make them fix it.

Mike, not that I think cgnat isn't a gross hack
