This is still a developing story and as I’m writing this, SonyMusic.com seems to be back up and running. However, earlier today, we received a tip from one of our readers that Sony Music might be hacked. Upon further inspection, we also found the site to be down, indicating:

 Service Unavailable

The servie is temporary unavailable. Please try again later. 

With Sony Music still in support of SOPA, hacker organizations in the recent days have states that they would be targeting Sony. It’s unclear at this time if this was indeed the work of hackers or a temporary outage on Sony’s part and just mere coincidence.

Thanks to Mike for the tip!

Do you believe Sony Music was hacked or just coincidence?
