Even if all they do is do things better and more polished than others, that's something any company would do well to emulate.
And sometimes doing things simply in a "more polished" way is revolutionary.
The early, pre-iPod mp3 players were an absolute mess when it came to navigating your music. That doesn't show up on a spec sheet, but "creating the first mp3 player that lets you actually navigate your music in a simple and enjoyable manner" is pretty freaking revolutionary in my book.
- collyw 13y agoYes and no. I mean you cad hardly say the iPod shuffle was a revolution in music navigation. They just marketed it right.
- JohnBooty 13y agoIt was a pretty good product for a lot of people! A lot of people, like me, just want to shuffle some music while we exercise and we're willing to trade fine-grained control for the fact that the device is as light as a feather. It also has really respectable sound quality and volume, which is not always the case (to put it gently) for teeny tiny electronics.
