Look at Phil's face when the 'M' word comes out.

He should have said, "Then go buy a different music player or use a different music store. There are hundreds of other brands out there, you don't have to be tied to an iPod."
Which would inevitably be followed up with, "But you have to use iTunes to use an iPod."
To which he could've replied, "But you have to use the Zune store to use a Zune. You have to use Windows to use 95% of the other music devices out there that were suckered into the Plays-For-Sure system from Microsoft. You can always use Amazon or Yahoo music to download unencrypted music, then load it onto your iPod.
Why don't you complain to the RIAA about encryption? None of this would be a problem in the first place if people could actually own the music they buy. You're complaining to the wrong company."

That was a pretty controlled response actually.

It's just annoying that the media can't think for themselves. It's become a fad to accuse Apple of being a monopoly. It's not a bad thing, it becomes bad when Apple starts using that position to actively force out the competition. So far they're just really good at marketing hype...
... AND they have to deal with Greenpeace.

I don't think Phil comes off looking too badly. It's mostly just his goons and the reporter that come out looking like pricks.

The media are now just a group of people to gather sound bytes out of context to sell more of whatever they are dishing out. They aren't about actually reporting as to what is going on. They have to add the icing and the little dishonest party favors too.
I am beginning to put the media right up there with certain types of lawyers, and bad cops.

I'd really like to know what reaction that reporter was expecting.

Did you notice how quickly his minions swooped in? I'm a little disappointed he couldn't handle it on his own.

UK reporters are usually dicks.

I'm surprised that he didn't have a "standard" memorized response for that answer. One should never go into an interview without knowing exactly what to say about just every question. Anything you're not prepared for and you have a "not prepared for" answer.
