275198 - connect-europe.com - Sony CONNECT music download site requires IE

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English Other, defect)

Description

[u81239]

Whenever I go to Sony's CONNECT music download site at http://www.connect.com/
or http://www.connect-europe.com/ it tells me to download another browser - yeah
right!

"We have performed a system check and detected that you need to download and
install the item highlighted in red below to use CONNECT. Please do this now and
then enter the site again.
    Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.5+    Download"

Note that even though I filed this in the 'Dutch' component, this is really an
international (or at least European) bug, as Connect supports the following
European languages and their respective countries: "English | Deutsch | Français
| Español | Italiano | Nederlands".

I'm sorry, I was not aware of those guidelines, nor did bugzilla point me to
them. I will remember it for next time, though.

On 30th August 2007, Sony announced its intent to phase out the CONNECT Music Service based on Sony's ATRAC™ audio format in North America and Europe.
