It's from SONY ads - any help?

I think if that is blur it was reworked. The crossbar of Blur Light's lowercase "e" does not connect as it does in the sample posted above.

Yeah, and the _t_ is a little bit thicker.

Perhaps Neville Brody reworked it for Sony (?)

Well the "n" is the genuine article, so let's stick to
customized FF Blur until someone can provide irrefutable
proof it's something else. (I'm sounding like the American
juridical system here... :-))

Oh yes! Actually FF Blur is not exactly the same, my sample is something - uhm - taller and wider (argh, sorry for my poor english) Probably Sony reworked it... They can't use a commercial font, of course, they must have their own font... But it's very very similar!
Thank you font Gurus, thank you very much!

Blur Light horizontaly scaled. (?)
