really big shoe
((( I'm also curious about your "80%" quote. Do you have stats
saying that 80% of all the people who own a portable music
player do not own a single WMA compatible player? )))

The most recent info I could find was this now-outdated article
from 5/13/2005, which pegs the iPod's market share at 87.3%:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/05/13/gates_ipod/

I'm sure that share has eroded some since May, but I doubt it's
dipped below 80% yet. Worldwide numbers may be a different
story, though, as an Apple press release from last month put the
iPod/iTunes Japanese market share at around 60% (that number
is trending upwards, though).
