love this report when it comes out every year. Its on global recognition. And the higher your company is up on the list more of a cult like love your consumers get. Then myths are created. Like "I must by Sony, because its the best" or Mercedes = power and wealth. Even when both brands are in reality stinking up the joint.
It's the ultimate consumerism study.
