The end of pono?


I've just heard that Neil Young has given an interview where he says that they have made a number of mistakes, gone through a number of CEO's, with him now acting as CEO, and that he woul like to get out of the hardware side of things. Aparrently just becoming a licencing authority, e.g.
"Pono Approved" product.

Also, I read that Pono will be releasing hi rez Beatles files. Really? And I thought that the most recent vinyl was cut from down sampled copies and that nobody at on the production side felt it mattered to have hi Rez copies.

Anybody know what is really going on?

So this was an interview from this year's cse and straight from Neil's mouth. There is no doubt that Pono hardware is soon to be gone. It looks like Harman is the first to bite and will be producing Pono certified car systems.
Really, you think he'll respond.....maybe he'll stop over for tea tonight and I can also ask him what really went down with CSNY.

I'll try to find the article I was reading and post it later. Anyway......anyone know anything more?
Um.....Edison invented many things.....high rez portable players were out way before pono. Young invented hi rez portable players like Gore invented the internet.
