Devialet teaser 11-11-2016 / 'The lost recordings'

Further than amplification, I think the core of their business is Music. The same wrote about Apple when they opened iTunes store, when they built the 1st iPhone, don't you think?

The core of Warner Music's business is music. The core of Devialet's business is digital hybrid amplification and speakers.

In either case a four grand 'play once' album in a posh box is just a publicity stunt aimed at people with more money than sense. I would also be very surprised if anyone buying this thinking it might be a good investment would come out very rich from it. It's also very 'lifestyle' - a label which Devialet seem pretty keen on.

I just find it all completely superficial and pointless. Like others had said already, when there are gaping holes in a companies performance in certain areas, combined with a reasonable level of customer dissatisfaction, it just seems, well, like their priorities are grossly misplaced or it's run by a bunch of clever madmen.

It's obviously not aimed at me, but whatever they were hoping to achieve - say to use it to launch a new technology or whatever - has had completely the opposite effect. I couldn't be less interested.
