April 23, 2007

Steve Jobs escaped frying pan; Apple execs dropped in fireLet’s not put any false airs on; we were all happy to hear Steve Jobs is out of the SEC’s sights. So happy, in fact, we’re pretty much a-OK with whatever else happens to those responsible for the shady back stock options scandal that has tainted Apple as of late. Unfortunately, someone forgot to knock on the wood, because Nancy Heinin, former Apple senior vice president, secretary, and general council, has caught the loving attention of the SEC.

I am of course talking about iTunes which made its debut for Windows way back in 2003.

April 17, 2007

Adobe undercuts Apple with Adobe Media PlayerSteve Jobs must be shaking his head, softly chuckling to himself as he reads that Adobe is releasing their very own media player, appropriately called the Adobe Media Player. Today at the National Association of Broadcasters trade show, Adobe revealed the product which seems suspiciously similar to iTunes, excluding the fact that it isn’t iTunes.
