I don't see what Apple would want with Sony.

Apple is the bigger name... and they don't really have a use for most of Sony's products... which are losing money.

It'd be interesting from a content perspective to get the movie and song rights and eventually get iTunes exclusivity i guess.

Outside that though... it'd be a huge waste.

If anything I'd think they'd just buy stake in a spun off Sony Entertainment.

Exactly. A treasure trove is Sony's music label, and iTunes is huge for apple, I think it's one of their biggest cash cows, people tend to forget that.

Only problem is... you'd expect at LEAST the EU courts to hit apple hard if they tried to pull that.

I'd think at least.
