iPod used as icebreaker on 'PodJay' Mondays

iPods are becoming a larger and larger part of every day culture. The Des Moines Register reports that the iPod is "popping up in unexpected corners of everyday life, from the pub to the classroom.... 'PodJay Mondays' debuted on Valentine's Day, and it is one of many signs that the coveted gadgets are becoming much more than mere entertainment. PodJay Mondays essentially set up digital players as the new icebreaker. People program a playlist with 15 minutes or so of songs from their music catalog, then hand their players over to bartender Clint Curtis who treats the entire room to their musical tastes. That gives customers the platform to ask each other about their favorite songs, while Curtis serves up apple martinis and apple shots. (Apple is the maker of iPod - ha, ha.)"

Obviously this means that Apple is doomed, the iPod is doomed as is iTMS. Can't you see the writing on the wall? With 90%+ marketshare, the only place for Apple to go is down and that means they'll be out of business within a year all because they didn't make friends with Real and give them access to the iPod for nothing in return.

Of course, it could mean that the guys at Apple HQ with enough degrees between them to evaporate steel do actually have a clue and might just know what they're doing. I know it's a wild, way out thing to say but I wonder.....
