I'm so glad the internet hasn't forgiven them for that.

I'm a bit sad that not everyone remembers when they made up a movie critic so they would have good quotes to put on ads for Sony Pictures movies.

I also haven't forgiven them for trying to sue people for simply watching the Geohot video, or removing alternative OS functionality from the PS3, or for trying to reinvent MMC/SD memory cards in a different shape and charge more for for them. Hell, I still haven't forgiven them for SonicStage.

I won't buy anything from Sony for any reason. I don't care what it is. I made damn sure my most recent camera purchase wasn't a Sony, no matter what the reviews said. That's because they pissed me off 20 years ago and haven't demonstrated any improvement in behavior since. Nerds have long memories.
