R & D with what? More T.V.s? Phones that aren't selling? Sony's tech is top of the line, and for the most part fairly priced. The only thing Sony could have invested more in would be advertising, and that may or may not have saved them. If they sold off media, they'd be stuck with dead divisions while their profitable divisions are making money for someone else (Which is what that investor wanted). That would have been guaranteed bankruptcy. Sony still has a chance to turn things around with media, as their games division is showing. That media potential's the only thing preventing investors from jumping ship in my opinion Though the focus on media should have been made 10 years ago, but I digress.

Sony is no longer a market leader like it once was. Its scary that even 10 years ago, Sony was the leader globally in electronics. Now they are late to develop everything and are always trying to catch up with Samsung, Apple, and even some Chinese companies.

Catch up with what? The Z phone has always been the best smartphone in that class. T.V.s have also always been top notch. Only thing they were really behind was with their music players. But even then there isn't a music player that has the audio quality that the walkman do. There's also issues with tech in general. There's a reason why Samsung has to scale back their smartphones.
