That's disgusting. Can't say I'm surprised. Sony have taken a hit in the last year and they are trying to capitalize on someone's death. Disgusting.

 

[undesign]

If she wasn't so crap the last few years they wouldn't be selling for $3 in the first place...

And won't her estate benefit from the increased price? These are emotional purchases so the price won't dent demand.

Hmm so it's either the most evilest company in all the world, or the second most. Hard choice really...
