Apple's getting lazy. Clearly drowning in money doesn't do much to motivate employees.
Given Apple's deep pockets and platform ownership, how is it that Spotify is still alive? How is it the Apple Maps is still lagging Google Maps so profoundly? Or that Apple can't muster any response to Netflix at all? Let's not even get into the farcical self-driving car project they aborted

Nor have they mustered a response to Johnson & Johnson—hell, they haven't even overtaken Snapple, who are only the _third_ largest soft drink business in the US. > Let's not even get into the farcical self-driving car project they aborted Actually, let's. I'd love to hear what you know about it.
