Interesting article on the danger Microsoft saw in the iTune launch and how they could do nothing about it. What was even more interesting was the fact that music companies already had some stores online that were dying on the vine. They were first (always a marketing guru mantra), but the functionality sucked.
Along came iTunes with the idea of unlimited copies for iPods and the ability to burn to CD downloaded songs and bang, they rule the digital music world.
When will every one in the ivory tower get it?
You can cash in on the way the world is changing, but you cannot control it. Outdated thinking about security and ways to control distribution that are in effect “buggy” to the consumer will get you killed.
Dead.
Joining the invisible choir.
In fact and EX-player.
First or Better
