Is Sony related to suicide bombers?
When I start reading about the NW-HD1 music player (NOT a MP3 player) I saw this: priced less than ipod = Nice; battery 3 times capacity of ipod = sweet; size of a credit card = wow; and only plays music from Sony music store KABOOM? Its dead before they launch it ...
So in other word, Sony expect us either to have a software and change all our music library format to their ATRAC thing, or to go and buy 13.000 song at their store so we are able to use all the memory capabilities... humm that is around $1 dollar per song... plus the cost of the player... final price $13.400 dollars for this "MP3 players"

For real who is the marketing consultant or product manager of this division? he is a genius? how can he rip off Sony like that?... I wonder when they will start making TVs and DVDs that will only play movies from Sony, or you will be able to see the Sony channel...JAJAJA I feel sorry for them... they use to be smart...
