At one time I used to think well of Sony products. Bought thousands of dollars worth of their equipment and hardware in one form or another. a rootkit later, a sue’em all campaign, a laptop battery forced recall, the betamax affair, the blu-ray debacle of forcing DRM, the requirement that floor salesmen sign an agreement not to speak bad of the Sony name and brand, and I’ve had it with them.

I don’t care they can’t produce these video game consoles in enough volume. I don’t care if they make tons of new HD-TVs. I won’t be buying anything that has the label name on it. I’ve lost the trust in the brand name and the corporate reputation reeks to high heaven. My eyes have been opened to just how bad they seek to twist the public opinion and influence it in their favor.

It will have absolutely no effect on me that they don’t support porn as I won’t have their equipment knowingly within my home. Whenever I see the brand name, I see a do not buy tag attached to it. I can not help but think that others in the public have the same thoughts.

It seems Sonys trouble are comming in bundles this year.
