i felt Sony has been this way since around the time they invented the CD,
and maybe a bit before. they seem to spend their time inventing new
standards that no-one else wants and then making lots of them.

What I found really shocking was not so much that Sony did it, as that it
did it so badly. With the resources it has at its disposal, Sony has
shown itself to be managed by the same sort of plonkers that infest every
other organisation. You could expect a multinational corporation to act
in a high handed manner. I would also expect that it would try to do so
effectively, discreetly and in a manner that would draw as little
attention (of the bad sort) to itself as possible. Not the case here.
