[QUOTE="Scubadude, post: 582438, member: 17459"] Sad to see Sony leave this market segment. Wouldn't call it one of the greats, but certainly always a dependable brand and a company that once was a model of ingenuity and innovation ... they fathered the very idea of a truly portable music experience with the Walkman no built on by Apple and others. I owned a couple of Sony items over the years. My very first CD player was a top-endish Sony (built like a brick outhouse but a terribly shrieky top end), a very nice stereo VHS VCR (heart of my first home theatre set-up until I got a Pioneer Laserdisc player), one of their entry level CD players used as a stop-gap for a couple of months (surprisingly decent sound) and a 40" Bravia I still have (at the time I bought it I believe Samsung had already surpassed it but I WANTED a Bravia). Sad day indeed ... [/QUOTE]
