Sony Packaging Centre Set Alight in London Riots

Sony's DADC packaging and distribution centre was torched and raided by looters last night, as riots spread throughout London for a third night in a row.

The blaze in Enfield is still being tackled by firefighters, but there are concerns that deliveries on CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays could be impacted as a result of the attack. So far it is uncertain whether this would have any negative consequences on the company's PlayStation business.

"We cannot determine the cause of the fire or the extent of the damage yet because it's not possible to enter the building," said Sony spokesperson Yoko Yasukochi in a statement to Reuters.
