It just sems to me that Sony is trying to play things from both ends. Fighting napster to prevent loss of sales, and at the same time releasing a memory stick walkman designed to play mp3's. If a company has a stance in the matter... fine. I don't agree with the anti-napster angle, but I can respect sony for at least having a stance. However I certainly think Sony is trying to pull a fast one by kind of siding with the mp3'ers as well by releasing products which are specifically designed to play dl'ed mp3's.
