Steve Jobs was already a legend before October 5, 2011. All over the world, people mourned the passing of the computer messiah who changed the world by integrating culture/art with technology. Going beyond just providing utility to the customer, he wanted to make something that would make people drop their jaw in awe. That’s why [...]
It’s here! It’s here! It’s finally here! The future of not only music, but information, has arrived, the cloud! That may be a little of an overestimation, but this still is pretty big news. With the iCloud, Apple has created a new frontier. This will change the way people understand ownership of music. If you can [...]
Incase you haven’t heard, the much fabled iCloud will be unvield by Mr.Jobs on Monday. While Google was trying to get the major labels in a deal, Apple went ahead and just did it. Like a boss. And really, the numbers are chump change for Apple. Apple will fork over between $100 million and $150 [...]
Oh, what a sad day to be Spotify, or any other music start up that has hopes of making money through the iPhone. You see there is no doubt that iTunes is going to use a cloud based model for digital music distribution in the near future. That will make iTunes compete with other streaming services such [...]
I’ve heard that Jobs isn’t doing too well. I doubt death is on his doorstep, but like all of us, it can’t be too far away.

This is up on Apple’s website, but we found a playlist on youtube. Again, it’s not a doc, but it’s good. Check it out. Hoover
I had heard Steve Jobs was an egomaniac, but this move for greater power over content is bigger than I thought it could ever be. Apple and News Corp, as in Fox News, have got into bed together. Yeah Faux News, the cancer of America, and Apple the apple of America are now in business together in [...]
Just caught the latest post from Derek Sivers. It’s about his deal with Apple when they wanted all the music from CD Baby for iTunes. It’s behind the scenes happenings you expect may happen, but are always surprised when it actually does. . ….I flew home that night, posted my meeting notes on my website, [...]
As if Compact Discs didn’t have a bad enough 2010 when iTunes dropped them from their logo. Now CDs are faced with the inevitable slow decline to obsolescence. T’was a great run though. They really made some units move in the 90′s, but like all things the dream is over. Via Tech Crunch …Make no [...]
