This is a critique on Sony right now, not an outlay of its future. It's relatively clear the steps that need to be made and it has a new CEO to do just that.Though the current situation is bad, it's future situation is much more optimistic. The article was only addressing the mistakes that lead the company to where it is. Do not translate that as a "death sentence". Sony has a lot more potential and you can find some analysts that would argue that instead of just highlighting the present. If Sony continued doing all the things it did in the past several years it will have problems, but why would they do that?
Sony is only "doomed" to where it is now. All of these negative aspects have already affected the company. It's future is dependent on how its new plans work out. Not what has already damaged them.
Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(
