Jobs is such a liar
Taken from his blog:
Apple has concluded that if it licenses FairPlay to others, it can no longer guarantee to protect the music it licenses from the big four music companies.

Fair enough. Of course, the measure of honesty in the statement depends on how good a job FairPlay does in protecting the music from the big four music companies. After all, Jobs is stating above that he currently guarentees that FairPlay protects the music Apple licenses and any change in FairPlay could affect the guarentee that Jobs currently gives to the big four music companies. Let's see what Jobs himself thinks about the quality of his own guarentee:
The simplest answer is because DRMs haven?t worked, and may never work, to halt music piracy.

Huh? So Jobs says he can't license FairPlay because then he could no longer guarentee that his FairPlay DRM would continue to protect the music he licenses but then he says that no DRM has ever protected music?

Jobs is a liar. He is a liar because he states that he can't license FairPlay because it would destroy the guarentee he gives to the evil record company while at the same time admitting that his guarentee isn't worth the kleenex he blows his nose with. Disgusting.

Queue all the Apple zealots.
