A very interesting retrospective look at a Rooling Stones interview Steve Jobs gave back in 2003 regarding the future of digital music and Apple’s role in that industry, only eight months after having opened the iTunes Music Store:
Steve Jobs a music visionary? Judge for yourself | Digital Media - CNET News
The metrics on what portion of Apple’s revenue consists of iPhone sales versus Mac sales (39% to 30%) were very interesting.
I also really thought Jobs’s comments on copyright was spot on: how maintaining intellectual property rights is not only important for the economy and the future of innovation, but that it when it becomes so easy to steal, not having an equally easy legal alternative leads to the corrosion of consumers’ character.
How freakin’ insightful is that?
