Read "ruined the music business" as "actually giving the consumer what they want instead of relying on greed and laziness to fill my coffers with regrets."

In other news, I met the director of the Architectural Desktop project at AutoDesk, and he says that they're converting the whole company to Macs, and doing everything else, including running their own software, via parallels. He didn't say whether …

It's a testament to the genii of Nintendo that there is a video game system in the women's top ten at all. It's ood to see a company reaching/(exploiting) a different market segment. The only reason why anyone would be shocked about Apple's fail…

To return to the issue at hand, it seems like OS X will not undergo a BANG change until 2015 or later. We may know about the next strategy sooner, for the sake of developers, but Apple has no need to. iZune, you might be missing the issue here wh…

I like this new feature set, but I would have preferred keeping the nano as-is, small, but still with a real interface, unlike the shuffle. I still like my 2 gig 1st gen nano; the size and shape are unbeatable for what it offers. Bringing back the m…
