spex Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 A Hot News story on Sony Digital Link website finally acknowledges the much documented problems with Sony Connect Player software. It seems that as well as fixing problems in Sony Connect player there is a further release of SonicStage on the cards.

rosjos Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 At last, some HONESTY and - to a lesser extent - some REASSURANCE.If Sony had come clean at the start and been honest about this issue and pointed customers in the right direction (ie, CONNECT has problems, use Sonicstage 'til we sort it out) then this shambles would not have dragged on so long. The reassurance would have been greeted with some acknowledgement and acceptance from most, especially if Sony appeared sincere about the whole situation and their efforts to solve the problem. But most importantly for Sony, their integrity would have remained (almost) intact.Are they really so stupid to realise we, the consumer, are not totally naiveand won't accept being fobbed off - or is it just arrogance on their part.As it is, we have been treated like s@*t for the best part of two months, and too bad for Sony, the damage is done and their reputation has sunk. Sony's success IS their reputation for quality and they may have to pay the price. For the best part of 20 years all electronic consumables - worth several thousand pounds - in my household have come from the Sony stable. Guess what - they have lost my loyalty. I am just but one individual and in their arrogance they may laugh me off as just that. More fool them if that is their attitude.Their announcement today has shown an element of honesty (maybe not 100%, but hey they've admitted defeat with Connect) and I do feel reassured now that they are taking steps to make the user experience feel somewhat fulfilling.WHY COULD THEY NOT HAVE DONE THIS WEEKS AGO? The CONNECT software engineers abilities came into question from the start. Now the Connect Software is on the way out, they look totally inept (so much for the "commitment from the Connect team", banded about this week by the affecionada on this forum).Anyway, lets wait and see. WELCOME BACK SONICSTAGE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagine_ Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I think we should petition for sony to make the new connect builds compatible with the old walkmans (nw-exxx) and nw-hdx ... I know it is not hard, and would make the current fan base happy so that they would buy walkman again in the future. Who will create a vote??
