Sony abraza el mundo MP3


Después de años de espera, El gigante japonés de la electrónica cedió ante la dura realidad de que los estándares conducen el mercado.

Su resistencia a despachar reproductores de audio que aceptaran el formato MP3 era tal vez una protección para su negocio disquero, pero el crecimiento avasallante de Apple --quien permitió, forzado por el mercado, que su producto estrella, el iPod reproduzca también MP3-- y de los reproductores de memoria flash, han llevado a Sony a preparar para abril el lanzamiento de una familia de reproductores flash y a renovar su línea de reproductores de Minidisc, que aceptarán todos el popular formato MP3.

A continuación la lista de especificaciones de los nuevos reproductores.
