he also made mp3 players popular
he was NOT jesus or anything similar
i feel starting up pixar is more of an achievment than a phone that is rediculously priced and no better than its competitors
he is a genious the way he has marketed apple as said though - selling retards shit phones for stupidly high prices was a great idea - angry birds had a helping hand though imo
u have an iphone m8?

Walkman covers Tape, CD, MD, HDD/MP3 Video, Mobile - i'd say Sony have sold more than 300m Walkman's worldwide in the 30 odd years.

If they say they started the mobile music revolution then they clearly are chatting breeze.
Not started but changed the way it was going and accelerated the uptake and development of it by magnitudes.
It was moving along but very slowly, mobile MP3 players like the creative were not going anywhere very quickly
But they were going. And I do believe the walkman started the mobile music revolution.
200k walkmans have sold to date
What is your point, Russ? Because you're not actually bringing anything to the table that shows that the iPod was the start of the mobile music revolution? The fact it's the highest selling means jack shit.

Being pedantic is what Russ is about just now. Not sure why. He's actually a funny chap, but his banter recently has been cringeworthy.

Are you saying without the iPod and iTunes as many songs would've been legally sold in the last 10 years.
