Agreed.
I think what is mind-blowing is that Sony (and others for that matter) weren't able to sustain their lead, continue to innovate and dominate the industry.
Well, perhaps that's not entirely fair since it's quite evident that they had the technical prowess. It probably had more to do with their conflict of interest of also being copyright purveyors.
edit: just remembered Sony's rootkit fiasco. What an absolute fall from grace.
