I haven't been able to find such a quote from eight years ago, but the same logic doesn't apply to the iPod... You can play any MP3 file you want on an iPod without Apple's approval, and playing MP3s is arguably the iPod's primary function. In this respect, it's just as open as any other MP3 player.
