Many firms are just absolutely dying to have content (Netflix, Amazon, etc), and this guy wants Sony to sell it off? |
I know, right? they still own 25% of all music and movies and on a good year the top selling console manufacturer, if anything as content becomes more king, Sony is in the drivers seat
|
They don't own nowhere near 25% of all music and movies. Time Warner is bigger and so is Disney, Universal, 20th Century Fox and Paramount. So far this year Sony/Columbia only have 6.5% of the market share when it comes to box office totals. Their best year was 2006 when they had 18.6% of the market share that's still nowhere near 25%.

I was talking more in terms of amount of studios/music publishers not revenue generated

Not in terms of studios/music publishers neithers there are a dozen other major studios and music publisher and hundreds of small independent studios/music publishers. Also there are tons of music acts that publish their own music. Sony isn't really that big not to mention that their biggest hit last year Skyfall was made in co-operation with MGM and made by Eon Productions both are not owned by Sony.
