Drop regular TV, move on to premium 4k. Keep all the rest.

I like my current Playstations, Xperia phone, Vaio laptop and Bravia television. Soon I'll get the Tablet Z as well which is top class android. And Probably one of their NFS sound bars soon since they are cheap (400 euro) for the quality.

I hope they don't drop TV. I've always loved their products and found them to be very good quality. I still have their TVs that are like 15yrs old and still working perfectly. Heck my friend has like an ancient Sony tv that's like a huge box and takes 10 people to lift it but still works great.

They just need to have a better strategy with their TV dept rather than getting rid of it. Hopefully they'll pick back up when 4K becomes more common.

I share this sentiment. Sony needs to try to make their TV-department profitable again - they were world leading once, who's to say they won't be again? Sometime you just need to push through and hope for better times. But if they can't turn it around (pretty soon) they really should consider dropping their TV's...

I think they should drop the TVs personally. Cut out the big bleeder areas where you aren't making profit.

That's 9 years of bad management as well, hopefully Kaz is better and knows what he's doing... I say 5 more years, then sell the shit out of the TV department if it's still not making money.

They are too stubborn to drop any of them, despite them all being money-losers

Well Sony does need to sell of some of its loss making divisions so it would be a good move if they did that. They should certainly sell the TV division cause that bleeds a lot of money.

Sony has fostered millions of loyal customers around the world with their beloved Playstation brand.

When these people decide to purchase big screen TVs, video cameras and smartphones they will choose products from Sony.

This means Sony has an advantage over its competitors in the electronics business and there will be profitable times ahead for the company.

Well, who knows right now? I think it could come to that, they might have to in order to save the other departments. Going more towards software/music/movies would make sense for them, and perhaps joint efforts for online entertainment and services, they have a lot of connections in the industry.

Maybe make less TV's. But surely their phones and laptops are just fine. Also, playstation will be fine.
