The optical disc drive operations from Sony (Optiarc) are under investigation for possible violations of anti-trust regulations.
|
Sony Optiarc, which supplies a lineup of optical disc drives, including those for CD-ROMs, CD-Rs, DVDs & Blu-ray discs, has received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice's antitrust division, a Sony spokesman said.
"Other countries are also seeking information on the state of competition in optical disc drives," according to the Sony spokesman.
Sony declined to comment further on which countries & whether or not Sony was a subject of other investigations.
It's also not clear what products were under investigation.
