Can I consider, Contrex, that companies like Ingenico are card players?

Ah, je meurs de rire !

And of course Sony and Hitachi are DVD players (Let's confuse the poor bugger some more...)

Francis, tu pense, combien de fois par nuit Sarko baise-t-il Carla ?

Au moment de jouir, crie-t-il "Ah ! Ah ! Nicolas !" ?

"Players" in this context are principal or significant participants in a field of endeavour, especially where an element of competition exists. As this article from the Financial Times shows, they can also be "names".

It's a sign of just how nervous people are when some of the world's best-known hedge funds rush to buy into a tiny, little-known stock.

Within hours of announcing that it had received several takeover approaches, shares in Whatman, the health technology provider, had attracted names such as Perry Capital and GLG Partners.

Some Industries are cards that shouldn't be dealt with.
