Jobs' quote
"Music is not on CDs in your cabinet. It's on your iPod."

He could have fooled me, I only have a few tracks I ripped from some CDs I bought in my iPod Shuffle(I use gtkpod, a Linux app for iPod downloading); the rest are tracks I downloaded from eMusic(they don't use CRAP), and other ripped CD tracks just sitting on my hard drive for my favorite music player.

And Jobs' quote reminds me of the RIAA's claim that ripping CD tracks onto an iPod isn't fair use, yet they said completely the opposite last year in the Grokster case:

Maybe Jobs is just echoing the HorseCRAP already coming from the RIAA wink
