Who says you need a methodology to create a good software product? (Answer: people selling methodologies). I've been on teams that have done "agile" and teams that didn't have any sort of named methodology at all, and I can't really find any correlation between that and the quality of their output. Frankly, it seems like it mostly comes down to how good the team members are, how good the managers are, and if they work in a good environment. (And the internet is definitely a software product: TCP/IP, BGP, routers, DNS, etc. etc. Compared to all that, running a few cables is nothing.)
