Tell me this. Is McDonald's still McDonald's if instead of selling hamburgers, it begins exclusively selling tacos? Or hats? Or financial consulting? The reason Sony exists is to sell electronics, that's their business, its what they've done since their founding. If the people working their wanted to work in a different industry, or more importantly were qualified to work in a different industry, they would. Companies that exist for the sake of existing and pursue any means of profit, to the extent of abandoning their actual business, do not last long.

There may be exceptions to that rule, but currently I can't think of any. Sony was good at selling electronics. They should do what they are good at, and try to get better.
