I'm sorry that it took you so long to discover what I dicovered ten years ago. Sony makes cheap (quality, not price) junk that lasts only as long as the original warranty. I could quote you a long list of premium priced Sony products that I'd owned over the years that lasted exactly as long as their warranties. I swore off premium Sony products ten years ago when the $850 video camera I bought lasted 12 months, two weeks and two days (and had @ 20 hours of actual use in that time). The repair estimate came to over 65% of the original purchase price. I pitched it in the garbage and took the oath - no more top-of-the-line Sony junk for me. Unless I am looking for a cheap, throw-away product to begin with I don't even consider Sony. For me Sony means "cheap, throw-away junk".

...with expensive, CHEAP Sony products. I swore off Sony after the THIRD copy of an expensive 23" monitor failed, just out of warranty.

Sony is the bully of the consumer-electronics world, and I plan to give them NONE of my money, ever again.
