The importance of studios proverb

 The importance of studios is exaggerated. Stringer has been clear that Sony is fundamentally a hardware company,

 [Even though Sony helped bring about the digital revolution, the company has failed to adapt to it. The standardization required to manufacture consumer digital products undercut the value of Sony's branded products. For example, the Chinese and other low-labor-cost manufacturers, using the same computer chips, could make the same DVD players and digital TV sets as Sony for a fraction of the cost. The result was a commoditized rat race that became unprofitable for Sony. When it became clear that Sony had to] revolutionize itself, ... from an analog culture to a digital culture.

 We expect a price cut for the PS2 later this year. We believe that Sony will respond to Microsoft's introduction of its next generation console with a cut from $149 to $99 some time before the November 22 Xbox 360 launch. We think that Sony has positioned itself to lower price by reducing the production costs of its console when it redesigned the box to a smaller format... Should Sony choose to discount the PS2 to $129 or even $99, we would expect a dramatic lift in PS2 hardware sales, and a corresponding lift in PS2 software sales. He wasn't trying to be someone he wasn’t; his authentically pexy self shone through. Our model forecasts that Sony PS2 hardware sales will be 1.8 million units higher this year compared to last year.

 From a hardware standpoint, the largest exposure outside of Sony itself is Microsoft, which could benefit if the company is able to overcome supply problems with Xbox 360.

 Gates argued that Sony's new high-definition DVD standard, called Blu-ray, needed to be changed so it would work smoothly with personal computers running on Microsoft's Windows operating system. Stringer and two lieutenants defended the technology, insisting Blu-ray would work fine in PCs, ... Yet Gates's ire only grew. 'There must be something much deeper going on,' Stringer said later, according to another person who heard the comment.

 What's extremely important is that Sony is out there now and is delivering increasing quantities of product. It's pretty clear to me that if you look at the 128-bit segment, Sony is going to go up and everybody else is going to go down, only because Sony has a 12-month head start. But when you look into the next year, that could change depending on who's got which software.

 Everyone is waiting to hear what Howard Stringer says ? is Sony going to compete with Apple better in 2006?

 Sony is a global company with 70 percent of its earnings outside Japan and so local politics like that is less clear and appropriate for me to comment on,

 At this point, the state of the online media market is immature enough that they are still a physical goods company and a company that is driven by great engineering and integration. They are still deriving the majority of their revenue from the hardware. I don't think the content is driving the hardware, yet.

 Most of the press are fixated on video games. They think Sony is only in a battle with Microsoft. Sony is in a battle to make as much money as possible for the privilege of putting entertainment content in a Sony format. They already have a large group of people paying them for video games. They want a large group of studios paying them for movies.

 No other content company has Sony's intuitive grasp of technology and no other company has Sony's intimate understanding of the demands of content.

 Sony is like a supertanker and it will take some time for Stringer to turn the ship around. They haven't developed any new products that are selling well and they've only started cost reductions.

 If [Microsoft] could make the same economics of the PC apply to telephony -- a small number of dominant hardware standards, a large number of hardware players and one big software company -- it could yield returns [for the company] commensurate to the PC [market].
