Ads will allegedly focus on Longhorn's big-brother-like features, especially its ability to automatically delete non-licensed media.

Apple has been working on such a project ("Marklar" - look it up), but there is no way they would release it unless they were in big trouble. In any case, if they did release it, it would only run on Apple X86 machines - they make their money from hardware, not software.
