It's just an issue of semantics and nothing more. If a company that previously was the sole producer (sony) or at least the one in charge of production, and then goes into a joint-venture with another company (toshiba) it will pretty much have to give a portion of the profits to toshiba in exchange for their $$$ to build factories and technical expertise in making quality semiconductors cheaper, and I know that you're an economic genius and all so you probably realize that when you go from being the only company to profit to one sharing in profits you are basically selling a part of your company to another.
btw, I have a degree in finance so I know what i'm talking about
