Quote du jour
Steve Jobs in an interview with USA Today on whether he fears the new iPod Touch will cannibalize iPhone sales:
“If anybody is going to cannibalize us, I want it to be us. I don’t want it to be a competitor.”
This ought to be the ongoing mantra of every local media company in America. It’s a textbook disruptive innovation response. When IBM, for example, got into the PC business, it helped cannibalize its mainframe business, which was already being attacked from without.
