I have read articles stating the Sony is not willing to release the Blu-ray player manufacturing to Chinese companies just yet, because they know that once they do, the players will become very inexpensive, and Sony will have a hard time selling there's.
So to some extent (unless all those articles were wrong), Sony has some control over who manufacturers players.
