rawd Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Is Sony crazy, going up against Apple for digital audio? Whats next, putting out some half ass portable audio player like a Zune oh wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJLunacy Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Good but upstaging Itunes impossible. Why is Sony coming off arrogant again? Nothing is impossible. Correct me if i'm wrong but isn't Sony also a record label or a division of a large label? Sounds to me like that would be a great move on there part.

rawd Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 They do, Sony/BMG music, it's huge Don't listen to anything half these kids say, they're probably still living in their parents basements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PL_ Veteran Posted December 14, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 14, 2007 It's plans like this that I think would have had a much much higher chance of becoming huge if it were on PS2 instead (much larger user base) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Dick Montage Subscriber² Posted December 14, 2007 Subscriber² Share Posted December 14, 2007 It would be arrogant if Sony came out and said we're going up against iTunes and "we'll be better!" - Or some variation of that. So you believe they enter into a business venture, assign funds and don't want to be better than iTunes? Sorry, but every business venture I go into, I want to be great at. I assume I will be, then I work to fulfil those assumptions. I consider that arrogance, but not in a bad way. I do not see arrogance as a bad thing, I take it to mean that you set a goal and are set out to achieve that goal, no matter what any other party may feel about it. Your goal is the key and not theirs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your goal is the key and not theirs! Oh don't get me wrong, they will definitely want to better. What im hitting at is the speech made in regards to what they are planning on doing doesn't come across as arrogant to me - It would if they said something like I gave as my example... "We are starting this new venture, and we're confident we'll be better/excel further than the rest". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUBBYJR2005 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I think itunes will still be number one but like to see what sony has and etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cormier6083 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 If Sony can sell DRM free tracks that can sync up to my iPod (jailbreak, perhaps?) on the cheap, I'm sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emn1ty Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Good but upstaging Itunes impossible. Totally correct. The only reason music is so cheap on iTunes is because Apple makes all their money from hardware sales, so they have no need to up the price for the music to make a profit themselves. And we all know Sony isn't making any money off hardware sales, so what could be in store for music prices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
