The ipod clearly was not given the media players already around.

Like I said ALL Apple EVER does is take an existing product
and do a hell of a job of producing a viable consumer product.

In this case both with the hardware and
the convenient way of buying stuff for it.

Its not as if even the 'ecosystem' of the ipod
was a radically new product either given that
we had already been able to buy mp3s on the
net before the ipod showed up.

Like I said, ALL Apple did was do a hell of a job
of improving the user interface stuff with both.

> Gimme a BREAK already!

You don’t qualify for any BREAK.
