Why pick on Sony for such a small infraction when Apple has perfected this whole product marketing process by putting its customers in a state of ignorant consumer's bliss.
Apple with its one-size-fits-all,dictated,chaperone product rental and marketing system is just a tech rental company.Its fans actually think that they own the products that they hold on their hands.So, when questioned Apple simply tells them that they are buying into a life style. Can you imagine the mass confusion if the tether line (iTune, for example) to the mothership Cupertino were to be cut off from under them. On balance, Sony has given us more than it has taken from us. You can not say that about apple.
Hold on now-that "all creative work is derivative" has always been an obvious and generally accepted view of human creativity. So, you are saying nothing new.
Recombining the the "ideas seeds" or "idea elements" or "ideas atoms" or whatever you might want to call them in order to create a more unique work is where creativity lives.These smaller elements are almost always universal experieces shared by all cultures.
The structuralist movement of Ferdinand de Saussure (1857-1913) tried to codify this concept into a new way of looking at this.It degenerated into other views because it tried to explain,again, a simple intuitive concept. Nothing is new under the sun.
