You have used three different names for your file: ./myfile.txt, aaa.txt, and now output. So, it looks like you have made (that is, written) a few copies of your file.

But, if you have an input file that ends with an incomplete line that you can't write and you just want to run your sed script on that file, the following will work:
Code:
(cat aaa.txt;echo)|sed 's/"[^"]*"//g'
