Again, there is a ZERO chance a Japanese company would allow an American company to take it over for cultural reasons. That won't happen.

  Sony is not a Keiretsu. They are fair game.

    Consider the other way around. Would Apple want to buy a decades-old consumer electronics company? Sony has been stagnant in my eyes, even before the NKorea hack.

  IMO, This is an invalid, outdated view of Japanese culture. Japanese companies, even large culturally important brands, get purchased by foreign entities. A controlling stake of Sharp was purchased by Foxconn two years ago, for example.
