Its these same morons who try to tag all of Sony as being responsible for the rootkit fiasco when that was the work of SonyBMG, which is a separately administered company to which Sony Corporate owns a 50% stake in (with Bertlesman(n) owning the rest).

UMD has failed completely, but the PS3 is still selling, for now. ]]>Aug 16th 2006 3:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/08/16/blu-ray-and-ps3-sink-or-swim-together-say-analysts/http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/16/blu-ray-and-ps3-sink-or-swim-together-say-analysts/
Sony has a problem on their hands with the PS3 and Blu-Ray. They need to educate consumers on the benefits, and also get people willing to spend a premium. If for some reason one or each fails, Sony is going to be in a world of hurt.

I view the PS3 and Blu-Ray as both huge risks.

I don't think it's a guarantee that both will be automatically successful.

Anyways, I'm all for Blu-ray and Playstation 3! Can't wait to get my hands on them.]]>Aug 16th 2006 5:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/08/16/blu-ray-and-ps3-sink-or-swim-together-say-analysts/http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/16/blu-ray-and-ps3-sink-or-swim-together-say-analysts/
