Sony Pulls A Fast One



How's your Netflix account? Queued up your movies nicely? Unfortunately "Ghandi" and "Open Season" have been pulled. Along with any other Columbia movie you queued, because Sony own Columbia and half of Hollywood, but someone forgot to tell Microsoft that. What is amusing is that the movies were pulled one day after the New Xbox Experience with Netflix was launched.

Did someone forgot to tell Sony and they quicky hasten with a few phone calls to make sure Microsoft don't get their grubby hands on their movies? Oh no, I am sure they knew all along. They just waited until the last day to stab the knife in. Good friends always stab you in the front remember? Now all Microsoft have to do is deny Sony Vaio laptops any Windows updates so they will be running on Windows 2000.

It's war out there in that playground kids. We will ever get Sony stroke Columbia movies? Of course you will. It's just that Sony want Microsoft to suffer a little bit. They still want to sell laptops and make money while you watch a movie. So I can't see them denying Microsoft that long. Well not until they have their own movie network running along nicely. Then they will need a Windows server to help them.
