They did the same thing back when DVD was high tech, they created their own path with Betamax but lost.

Their MP3players which only plays Sony's format ATRAC, failed for 3-4 years until Sony took the thumb out of their asses and began selling MP3players which can actually play the format without the user having to convert all their songs to ATRAC.

What else do we have.......hmm Mini Dics and UMD off course. Like you see Sony are format whores and do everything they can to ruin it for the consumers. Now they are probably very happy that Toshiba and all those people with HD-DVD players and media have products which will be useless in 2-3 years.
Oh so it's a pet peeve. I thought they were siding with psychos or something

Betamax? isn't that magnetic tape technology from the 80's? You mean they also had a Betamax DVD???
