PS2 Confusion

Dear Future Gamer

Reading 'Sony DVD Dumping' (FG66), I was a bit confused. I thought that a few years ago the Recommended Retail Price (RRP) was scrapped for electrical goods, allowing shops to sell consoles or any other electrical equipment at practically any price they wanted. Hence, if Sony can't set the price, how could they be seen to be 'dumping' on the DVD market? It's a bit like saying PlayStation couldn't be any cheaper than a hi-fi because it could play music CDs as well as game CDs.

FG: You could well be right, Chris. Anyone got the definitive answer to this?
