No $300 a year for the ESI subscription. Includes factory training
information and other information beyond service manuals.

Quite frankly, if you think that $300 is only affordable to the 'big boys'
you are in the wrong business. $300 would be easily paid off in the first 3
Sony big screen repairs.

$300 is paid off in time saved repairing less than 3 Sony smaller items per
month.

$300 is less than one days labor output in a small shop with around three
quality techs.

How much !
$300 a year for downloads!
( probably with a helpline etc. )
Without being able to see what's available first.
Only the big boys can afford that.
More broken Sony **** heading for the landfill sites.
Why don't Sony do the descent thing and allow downloads at say $7 a go ?
We will have to start advising our customers to buy another brand next
time.

Does Sony feed a cookie in when using a password and wont download if it
isn't present?
Is that how it works?
