Sony scales back Bravia TV guide for antenna and set-top viewers

Sony is removing several Bravia TV guide features for over-the-air antenna channels and set-top box users, including channel logos and thumbnail images. The guide will only show programs from recently watched channels and program information may be omitted for some channels. The Set Top Box TV menu will be replaced by a Control menu, and thumbnails will disappear. The changes go into effect in late May, with Sony not providing a reason, which could make the guide less useful for affected users.
