It's strange that Sony isn't doing better. It has a huge brand power thanks to Walkman and Playstation, which should affect many people into choosing Bravia LCDs over other companies' products.

I mean, if I go to the store I see the Sony TV is only like 10% more expensive than the corresponding Samsung, and Panasonics are even same price or more.

I mean, all the Playstation fans should choose the Sony TV right? Sony has so much for free from brand name. It's strange that they don't make more profit.

Very interesting, because although I may be anecdotal I find that is the case with me. I generally prefer the playstation games and have for some time now but I recently realized that it in no way affects my other purchases ie my camera, TV and phones. I wonder if this means I am casual. lol

Yes, or you're rather a leech lol.

You see, the idea by Sony is to strengthen the brand by making Playstation cool among youth, and selling it relatively cheap. But the strategy also expects that the gamer in turn should pay the reward back by choosing the Sony electronic products over other cheaper brands.

But you don't fullfill your obligations.
