sonys reputation hit the floor,quality went down on there products & lost sales.
I think if sony made changes (cutbacks) and improved quality of there products (instead of rushing them out) they would gain a better reputation and within years could be successful again.

They were a powerhouse in the TV industry scene not just domestic back in the day. For instance, it's often joked that Betamax was finished early... but not in the industry, it was all Betamax there.

Its a lot easier being righteous than right.

I'm still on a permanent boycott of $ony from their root kit fiasco and attitude on media, copyright, and IP. Less $ony and less of this attitude is good for the world.
