Safe Mode: On
Secrets of the Superbrands: Technology

The first 30secs should grab you enough to want to watch later. I've skimmed it, and it addresses all the funked up technology fads that are astounding those of us old enough to know how to write operating systems, compilers and lookahead memory addressing schemes. And hand-solder surface mount devices. And program in hex. And build a den in the woods.

Coverage of the digital porn industry starts at 33min 10sec (includes the HD/Blu Ray war).
Facebook coverage starts at 43min 50sec.
Google coverage starts at 49min 10sec

Most of the first 15mins is just taking the living piss out of Apple.
At 17mins they examine Microsoft, so I think they look pretty balanced.

Very timely piece here from the BBC methinks.
