Hacking a console isn't illegal in Spain

A Spanish video games retailer was considered innocent in an lawsuit opposing him to both Sony and Microsoft. He was sued for selling Mod Chips, allowing its customers to play with imports games and downloaded ones.
Even though the judge admitted that such a behavior could represent a crime against intellectual property rights, he finally decided that the Spanish law has a lack of precision that can lead to judge it legal. Indeed, the law on inellectual property rights and "code hacking" doesn't include video games and TV equipments.
