The idea is simple. Experienced users can share their knowledge. They can answer questions from new users. Sony provides official forums for this. Their own experts also participate. But user answers are a big part of the system. Sony monitors the forums. They make sure information is correct.
This approach helps everyone. New users get answers faster. They don’t always wait for Sony support. Experienced users feel valued. They enjoy helping others. Sony benefits too. They see common problems quickly. They learn what users need. This can improve future products.
