No self-respecting geek would ever recommend any Sony gear anyway. Their hardware arm is a slave to the content-producing arm, who has been crippling new devices with broken DRM since the 90s.
True, Sony gear is utter crap, but things like lost recommendations are too invisible to make other people take notice. While a few people will chime in on any thread to mention that they, too, have been boycotting Sony since the rootkit, it's hard to get any sense of who is doing what.
Contrast that with GoDaddy, where outsiders can tell how many domains moved, how much of an exodus is average, who made good on their promise to move.
