"Sony isn't really Sony as much as it used to be"
Good. About time their rootkitting, awful, privacy-invading, PC-crashing hardware division burned to the ground. And putting Java into a bloody thing made for watching movies was the absolute worst idea anyone has ever had in the history of entertainment.
I will never buy another piece of Sony hardware again, period.
So I'm not at all unhappy that Sony keeps to films. That, at least, will not be rooted - for the time being.
