seems the iPod may be a dinosaur afterall...
Long, long time ago I can still remember how Steve Jobs made us smile
He knew the Mac was truly great; it trumped that DOS made by Bill Gates
And dominated PCs for a while.
But '85 in retrospect looks like a case of gross neglect
Bad news of a crisis; the Mac, Jobs wouldn't license
I can't remember if I cried as I watched Apple's business slide
Too bad those lessons weren't applied The day the iPod died
So bye, bye to the Pod with an i
We'll use Real or just steal, swapping files on the fly
The Apple faithful might continue to buy
Singing, iPod has such elegant lines.
But iPod has such elegant lines.

in a story in usa today, steve jobs is accused of refusing the iPod tech to third parties, forcing other companies to work around the file sharing.
this could be good for consumers, as other providers become frustrated with apple, opening up new markets may prove cheaper and better in the long run.
