Layoffs always suck, but seriously who the hell needs a Sony store? Why do certain electronic companies need personal stores anyway?

I always thought the same..arrogance is the only answer I can come up with.


It isn't arrogance. They are actually hugely beneficial to brand recognition and allows companies like Sony or Microsoft or Apple to show their products in the best possible light, something most electronic stores really don't give a damn about as what most stores want is to push the products that give them the best return or commission. These stores aren't usually there to make a large income or compete directly with electronics stores, consider it a relatively cheap form of advertising.
