Wow, I should be used to Sony's arrogance by now, but, for some reason, I'm not. I just don't get them. If their products were significantly better than the competition it would be one thing, but there are several more than competitive alternatives in the market place.
yea that's the problem, artificially low prices caused in part by theft of IP or counterfeit products, or products produced in slave states like China hurt the market in terms of high-end components because mainstream manufacturers are forced to lower the quality of their items in order to compete on price.
so what he is saying makes sense when you think about the big picture and the industry as a whole, but i do have to admit at first it does sound rather insane.
