I'm not interested in Kindle news, so I don't read them. I'm not that much interestet in Sony, so I just flip through those news. Those are the forums at MR I usually don't visit either. It's quite a large board right now, with space and room for any device and any preference.

I don't think there's a significant problem with information about products from smaller companies...it's the relatively shameless abuse of the website by representatives from those companies for advertising.
I don't mind hearing about the company's news, though I strongly dislike the way they're trying to weave advertising into it directly. I'm sure that sentiment is shared by quite a few folks.
