Apple TV is a good point...Don't know why all other Apple devices don't follow the same process.

- brianwillis 16y agoI suspect it comes back to Job's strategy for the Mac back in 2001 (I think it was 2001, not sure). He talked about how computers had gone through several generations, and that we were moving into an era where the PC/Mac was the "digital hub" that kept all your devices in sync and playing nicely with each other. Google would probably argue that that's the responsibility of their servers. With the iPhone and iPad doing as well as they are, I imagine conversations are being had at Apple about what the future of the Mac really is. Even if it has much of a future at all.
- mootymoots 16y agoI guess it'll turn out to be iTunes.com, your Mac will stop being the hub, and it'll move to the cloud. Apple are building a new data centre which apparently will be built for the cloud, my guess it's going to be the backbone of iTunes.com and their other online services. http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2009/08/apple-cloud/ http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2009/08/apple-cloud/
