Since this thread is based on speculation, I'm going to throw in my 2 cents. I may be wrong, which I've been before; however, I have a feeling the looming recession/depression has a lot to do with Sony's belt tightening. From an economic point of view, it just seems like the right play since they can't splash the cash like Microsoft can.
If you guys are not aware of it, just look up on how the FED has been keeping up the repo-market/stock market in life support by just printing money for the past few months. Interesting times are a coming.
