After Apple , Sony is the hardware tech company that I hate the most. They have always had retrograde and protectionist thinking with their products like Nintendo.Betamax x VHS war was a great example

I wonder how much of the world's resources Sony has poured into their own proprietary formats that didn't catch on because they kept them proprietary, from Betamax to Memory Stick.
