Who are the top 8 spots?

Ok I found them. Its very irritating when a nearly untangible company (google, in addition to some other sites) beats B&O.

Yep, strange... I cannot see what's cool in Google...

I just can't imagine B&O staying 9th next year with the exciting new products that will be released until then. B&O has suffered mainly from a lack of new excting products this year. BS5 is cool, but surely a little bit "simple" for the panel of this study (Apple n°1, Google on the top, along with Blackberry, Youtube & Playstation... That study surely hasn't been made with old people!!)

Apple company occup. 3 spots in the list. I guess this is product brand, not company brand list.

The top 20 in the CoolBrands 2009 list are:

1. iPhone

2. Aston Martin

3. Apple

4. iPod

5. Nintendo

6. YouTube

7. BlackBerry

8. Google

9. Bang and Olufsen

10. PlayStation 3

11. Xbox

12. Tate Modern

13. Dom Perignon

14. Virgin Atlantic

15. Ferrari

16. Sony

17. Mini

18. Vivienne Westwood

19. Rolex

20. BBC iPlayer

Considering laltely what lemons B&O have brought out eg Serenata, DVD2 and their general below performance in the digital arena. When  added  to the really awful management performance, IMHO, in the last few years prior to Kalle's arrival this is a great result and shows what a brilliant brand this is..............

A few more products like the BeoVision 10, an improved BeoSound 5 and with functionality to match there is no doubt that B&O can be No1.

A tip for B&O perhaps, integrate as closely as poss to other top cool brands Apple(PUC good, iPod dock?), STB support for iPlayer well thats a thought?

Where is Loewe on this list? Maybe we should ask B&O of Kensington or their sister Chelsea branch😎............................................................?

I think, it is worse, that B&O can't be found in

position 79 Pizza hut.

Went to Pizza hut yesterday with the children(my first time),

Pizza -Awful

Tables-Filthy

Napkins-Run Out

Cutlery Glasses-filthy

Toilets- Lets not go there!

Take your point Tom these lists are basically worthless, unless of course you run a consultancy to make lists!

It certainly indicates that Bang have lost some coolness lately.  With some luck, some products that people actually desire and offer real benefits will take form and people will once again walk over hot coals to buy them.

The delay in entering the digital forum was a huge mistake and i hope the new management are listening to the wants of people to date - read iPod docking station etc  - not just a cord solution to connect to hi-fi.  Give people a reason to buy and no excuses not to.
