E.digital interview & IBM/Sony Kerry, good work/job. I appreciate it as I haven't had time to listen to the interview and probably will not. None the less, your transcript leads me to believe more than before that the interviewer misstated who is working with Sony. I can't make this long but I will "point" my reasons: 1) Edigital doesn't sound like Digital on Demand, but people do not often recall a word b/c it sounds like it (although they can), rather it's the relationship of the word. Both contain digital and it would not be a surprise to mix things up. "Uhhhh, what is that company....digital something....yea, e.digital". 2) Consider the number of relationships occurring right now. The interviewer has obviously read some about the industry and, as such, has likely come across most of the companies involved (thus, it wouldn't be a surprise to mix up an "edigital" with "digital on demand" given they are bothing working in a similar arena (digital distribution of music). This increases the likelihood of a mix up b/c of the relational aspect (unlike if one argued he mixed it up with a company named "Digital X X" who is working in the finance sector). 3)Digital On Demand has a business relation to Sony in a similar arena. Again, makes the connection between "digital" and Sony. 4)People make mistakes (as Christopher Jones demonstrated who has been one of the main journalist covering the scene and written a front page article for New Media) 5) The interviewer himself suggests that he is uncertain. Further suggests we shouldn't take his words as completely accurate. None the less, I'm not saying it is impossible. For example, we have an unknown relationship with IBM (besides VoiceTIMES). And, Sony has a working relationship with IBM working on a secure distribution method as suggested by the following 2 articles: news.com news.com As such, it's not surprising when partners introduce other partners to partners who then create their own working relationships.
