Speaking of Apple, I too noticed a slow down in the iTunes store on Christmas morning when the Fruit of the Murphy Loins were trying to load up their new gifts.
Speaking of layers of editors etc. , I just had to laugh at this line:
That extravagant spending may not last forever: one analyst said that while Apple now has about 75 percent of the market for downloaded music, it could see as much as 5 percent of market share go elsewhere in 2007 because of increased competition.
May not last forever? As the once and current Prince noted, forever is a mighty long time, so one can drop the “may” part. But then the writer would be confronted with putting a real time limit on how long Apple’s dominance will last, which, in the words of Donald Rumsfeld, is a known unknowable.
