Sony Admits MP3 Error

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the saving-face dept.

inflex writes "In a rare show admission of taking a wrong turn, Sony's officials have admitted that their stance on MP3 players was wrong." While this was pretty obvious to anyone who has ever shopped for a portable MP3 player, it is nice to see Sony admit their shortcoming. Ken Kutaragi puts it best when he says, "We're growing up," and with any luck future devices won't be crippled with silly formats no one uses.

    Why the hell is this guy modded troll?

    Oh, wait, it's because he said something negative about Apple, and since /. is filled with Apple zealots, he gets modded down.
