The whole "software corruption" thing sounds suspicious.
OS upgrades don't "corrupt" apps unless those apps are doing something they shouldn't, like replacing OS dlls or hijacking the registry. They just make non-compliant apps stop working.
Bad choice of words, Sony.
Now I'm flashing back to the CD rootkit era.

They are laying it on a bit thick in their support pages
"If you do not wait for our test results before proceeding with the upgrade, some of the hardware or features on your VAIO computer may no longer work as intended. In such cases your VAIO computer may experience crashes, become unresponsive or may even suffer hardware damage. Your VAIO would then require service and you risk losing all of the data that is stored on the computer.
We therefore strongly recommend that you do not upgrade to Windows 10 when it becomes available on July 29, but instead wait for the upgrade information and drivers that we will be providing.
Please refer to our support policy and schedule for upgrade information and driver release dates.
IMPORTANT: While there is a high chance that your specific VAIO model will be compatible with Windows 10, we cannot guarantee this until the testing phase is over."
