From the IHT
By Larry Rohter The New York Times –
In the late 1960s, Andreas Pavel and his friends gathered regularly at his house here to listen to records, from Bach to Janis Joplin, and talk politics and philosophy. In their flights of fancy, they wondered why it should not be possible to take their music with them wherever they went.
Inspired by those discussions, Pavel invented the device known today as the Walkman. But it took more than 25 years of battling the Sony Corporation and others in courts and patent offices around the world before he finally won the right to say it: Andreas Pavel invented the portable personal stereo player.
“I filed my first patent a complete innocent, thinking it would be a simple matter, 12 months or so, to establish my ownership and begin production,” he said at the house where he first conceived of the device. “I never imagined that it would end up consuming so much time and taking me away from my real interests in life.”

Instead of the usual news story, we here at ATRACLife are interested in understanding how the community feels about Sony’s new software. This is a poll for our forum users to answer, simply asking the principal question of which Sony music management software they prefer. If this topic is a success, we will introduce a more specific poll with more specific questions. Connect Player has reached a somewhat stable point, so it’s fair to compare it to Sonicstage at this time.
We would also appreciate specific reasonings behind your answer as a reply to this topic. Any posts that are hostile in nature will be removed, as the intent of this topic is not to foster such emotions. If we feel that your words are sound enough, we will forward them to Sony’s software development accordingly. ATRACLife has become a very promiment voice in the world of Sony portable music players, so we can make a difference with our words as long as its organized.
