	RTE Business - Sony launches Connect web site
		Sony's Connect website allows subscribers to download over 300,000 songs for €0.99 cent per song, which is the same price for which songs can be downloaded from Apple's iTunes web site.
		But Sony will have some catching up to do if it is to compete with Apples's iTunes, which has sold 85 million songs since it was launched in the US over 15 months ago and claims 70 percent of the legal download market.
		In August, Sony is to launch the NW-HD1, which is the size of a credit card and has 20 gigabytes of memory, allowing it to hold up to 13,000 songs or 900 CD disks with a battery capacity of up to 30 hours.

	Sony's new CEO fights discord at rival units (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Sony's reputation as an innovator is also suffering as the snazziest gadgets from competitors, like the iPod or the TiVo digital video recorder, increasingly depend on the specific juggling act that Sony can't do well: integrating hardware, software and services.
		Contributing to that slump, Sony executives say, was the poor performance of the Walkman line, whose CD and MiniDisc players were seeing their share eroded by the iPod.
		Connect is also working with the videogame and cellphone groups, in a stab at true cross-company cooperation.

		Sony Connect is still a work in progress, which explains why we noticed some serious problems with its aesthetically pleasing interface.
		Like most of the services we've reviewed, Connect allows you to burn a particular playlist onto 10 CDs, but with Connect, 5 of those have to be ATRAC CDs (the other options are audio CDs or MP3 CDs).
		At press time, Sony was working toward allowing users to transfer purchased tunes from secondary PCs to portable devices but had no definite plans to extend CD burning to secondary and tertiary computers.

	PC World - Sony Reader: An E-Book Worth Reading
		Nearly nine months after showing off a prototype, Sony is gearing up to sell its innovative Sony Reader for electronic books--and to open the iTunes-like Sony Connect online store, which will be the only purveyor of commercial book titles in the device's proprietary file format.
		E Ink uses millions of tiny positively charged white and negatively charged fl microcapsules that are "printed" on plastic film atop the circuitry; depending on what type of charge is applied to a specific capsule, the white or fl particles move to the surface of the capsule to form type and images.
		Sony says that the Reader's E Ink display can produce four scales of gray at a resolution of about 170 pixels per inch--more than twice the pixel density of most conventional LCDs, and on a par with the resolution of newsprint.

		If SONY turned to Apple for a partnership, their success would almost be guaranteed -- but as this will benefit SONY more than Apple, it will have to be SONY approaching Apple, which will require them swallowing their pride.

		For some reason, Sony believes that the number one most-wanted feature for the system is the ability to connect to a PS3, but as can be seen by our not-scientific poll, it's one of the least desirable functions, barely beating out Text Messaging.
		Connect wants to provide video content to the PSP, but can't seem to find the right way to implement DRM.
