Re:too bad it doesnt do MP3 (Score 1, Insightful)

Sony has been dragging it's heels in supporting MP3 for years. I initially thought they wanted to perfect a perfect IPOD-killer before jumping to MP3, but now I know that they just don't get it.

NOTE TO SONY: MP3 is the default format of digital music files PERIOD. We're sorry if it doesn't incorporate the stringent security features you would like. We understand that you run a music business and would like to protect your investments. However, you are also in the hardware business, and hardware, to be successful, should conform to the most popular formats out there. Your main competetitor, Apple, understands this. Why can't you? Do you like spending millions on R+D just to see you products tank?
