Sony got big enough to see themselves become the villain. They're no longer the plucky company pushing technology forward by releasing off the wall or risky products that become groundbreaking. Rather, now they're the highly conservative greedy assholes who are always last to market with anything, are obsessed with trying to make their version of everything proprietary (cables, memory cards, batteries, software...), try to install rootkits on your computer if you want to listen to music, and sue people for watching a Youtube video.
Sony deserves to crash and burn, so any talented employees they may have left can be released from the shackles of lifetime employment at a massive Japanese conglomerate and freed to work somewhere where they might be able to make some positive contribution to society again.
Fuck Sony. Never give Sony a single red cent.
