Okay whoa, back up.
You don't get to hold 80% of any market by being some "craze" which implies some flash-in-the-pan unexplainable success that's motivated by only peer pressure.
That being said, I think Steve doesn't realize one thing, and that's that his argument is a chicken and egg one. Maybe the reason subscription services like Rhapsody, Napster, and Yahoo! Music haven't taken off is because 80% of the population who owns a portable music player doesn't own one that's compatible.
In other words, if Steve threw down a subscription service tomorrow, you could bet your bottom dollar that they'd be instantly more appealing and a much bigger source of revenue.
