  • "Did Tim Cook Pay $3 Billion For His Successor?" ["Will Iovine replace Cook like Jobs replaced Amelio? If so, this deal could be a catalyst for Apple stock. Will Iovine replace Cook like Jobs replaced Amelio? If so, this deal could be a catalyst for Apple stock. ... Beats' co-founders Iovine and Dr. Dre will work for Apple. According to the Times they will report to Apple's content chief, Eddie Cue, who reports to Cook. But with all the lavish praise of Iovine's ability to inspire talent to write hits and to envision how the music industry will evolve, he evokes memories of Jobs' creative genius."]  Forbes 8:29 AM

  • "A tale of two Apples/Tim Cook's instruction from Steve Jobs was clear: Don't let Apple become paralyzed like Disney did in the wake of Walt Disney's death, endlessly asking what the esteemed founder would do in any given situation. The only directive from Jobs's tenure that mattered after his death was the one that freed Cook and everyone else at Apple from playing 'What Would Steve Do?'" Macworld 2:50 PM
  • "A New Irreverent Spirit at Apple: It had been only four hours since Jimmy Iovine had agreed to sell Beats Electronics to Apple for $3 billion, but it was clear that he had already gotten the corporate memo." ["Mr. Iovine's irrepressible spirit — and his willingness to simply declare something to be reality regardless of the complexity of the facts — bears a marked resemblance to the 'reality distortion field' that Mr. Jobs so famously emanated. ... Mr. Iovine said he and Dr. Dre, his Beats co-founder, had long considered the folks at Apple, especially Mr. Cue and the late Mr. Jobs, to be kindred spirits. 'We met with the guys, and what we realized is they get it,' he said. 'They have feel. They understand culture.'"]  New York Times [Free/Paid Registration Required] 8:47 AM
  • "With Beats Music Service, Apple Goes Against the Wisdom of Steve Jobs: Steve Jobs always hated the idea of music subscriptions. More than once, I tried to convince him that it was the way of the future. But he would mock me, citing the pathetic track record of the companies hawking subscriptions of unlimited music that go away when you stopped paying. People want to own music, he'd insist." Wired 1:47 PM
