Howard Stringer of Sony says they’re going to make a big push into the U.S. market for video downloads and go head-to-head with Apple. See the WSJ story here. This news comes in the wake of our rift with NBC. It’s Sony’s way of saying, “Hey guys, remember us? Over here? Sony? Big name in the last century. Still in business. Still want to be your partner. Call us, bokay?” Oh well. Looks like we’ll have to back up the Hummer and drive over them again. (Photo by David Manning, Ridgefield Press.)
