The success of NeXT isn't really a reason enough to think that Apple would fare better under Jobs instead of Sally. After all, it was Jobs' decision to bring Sally onboard, and there were some pretty smart people on Apple's board of directors when they cut Jobs out, it was not all empty intriguing. If there were no NeXT, Apple could have easily been ripped apart by pink/blue debate, or shrivel and die, were the engineers involved ostracized by the management.

But what do I know. That's all pure speculation.

Could you elaborate on that, please?

It seems that RIAA and MPAA are the luckiest of these middle men and the most persistent, and that is why they came to make such a huge profit from what was relatively obscure nook of an intellectual property regulation. After all, the concept of an artist having the privileged right to his, already published, work comes first, and all the delegations and copyright issues come second.

DRM is designed to keep power in the hands of rights holder, the creator, and, by necessity, away from the consumer, and only the monstrous bulk of MPAA allowed them to effectively pretend that they are not the simple middle men, but the focus and origin of all the rights that anybody can ever have on IP.

um, I reckon you can put constrastive stress on function words, as in in the street against on the street and President of the United States against President (of UAE) in the United States.
