Re: What good is it...
It doesn't work that way Sony Music/BMG is a totally different company than all of the other Sony companies. In other words not buying that Walkman or Playstation isn't going to affect Sony Music. Not watching that Sony Pictures movie will only hurt the movie house, which it totally separate from the rest. If Sony Music flounders and dies the other Sony companies will move forward as if nothing happened because their business (and revenue) have nothing to do with them.
As a matter of fact Sony Electronics was on the other opposite side of Sony Music a couple years ago when the RIAA was trying to legislate hardware DRM on music players and computer hardware. Sony Electronics fought along with Intel, Samsung and others against the move. |
