| Apple = Sony
Apple is acting exactly like Sony : back in the 80's, Apple always priced its Mac way too high and refused 2 stores in the same market. That's why it lost against the PC.
Sony lost with Beta but still didn't understand some basics principles : it still prices its Blu-Ray way too high.
Consumers will buy other similar but much cheapers goods. |

Re: Ha ha
Yes but people get all upset if it's Gates. Jobs is a tool who loves his little cult following. Oh and I love how he goes on and on about originality and how they were "pioneers" and that MS stole their ideas from Apple. Their entire GUI was based on IP theft from, you guessed it, Steve Jobs. Wonder how Xerox feels about Apple...... |

Re: Apple = Sony
Blu-Ray players are no more expensive than DVD players were when they first came out. Hell, a PS3 gives you a good player for 400 bucks. The media is expensive but, again, so were DVDs when they were released. Since the end of the little format war the price on many BluRay moves has started to drop. It will be in normal range soon. |

Blu-ray is not solely Sony. 
BTW, there is no similar, cheaper products comparable to Blu-ray.
HD DVD died, remember?
My first DVD player... that was one of those $600 - $700(more? Been a while) things - back when a dollar was worth something.

Re: Ha ha
It's no secret that Jobs got the GUI bug when we went to PARC to see their goodies.
And if you want to base innovation on how many copies of an OS gets sold then MS owns everyone.
Apple took the GUI and brought it to the desktop. Gates obviously saw the writing on the wall after seeing Apple's work and used what he saw to develop Windows.
True ground up innovation is very rare. Most consumer revolutions come from someone who was smart enough to take existing elements and combine them in a way that could be considered innovative.
Just like proportional typefaces. Microsoft was actually working on it a year before the Mac came out (and Xerox long before that) but the Mac combined proportional typefaces with their printer and the Macs bitmapped screen...an "innovation" in affordable personal desktop publishing. |
