@Indy and Robert , understood.

Also, it hasnt effected all brands. There are several where little seems to have changed.

The conomdrum going forward for google, they will get clicks on brand manufacturers links but it doesn't mean that's the search people wanted. When I want product stats now on a tv, phone, sporting good, kids bike etc I go to the retailer or etailers site because many of them have presented the data in useful and easy to read ways with important information clearly broken out. Compare your top tech site to say amazon where I have to scroll all over a giant page to get anything (not a manufacturer throwing it in because they are back to ranking near the top).

Google seems to have forgotten that they're doing a disservice to searchers by putting some brands first. If sony wants to be first let the organize their site in an efficient manner like best buy etc, dont put them above bb just because they're Sony.
