Jobs on Music

Music theft has been and still is a hot topic among several industries besides music. It effects many companies such as Apple, the producer of the iPod can hold thousands of songs, many illegally downloaded. Recently Steve Jobs the CEO Apple released his thoughts on music and its defense to diminish the stealing of music.

One of his alternatives for the future to help ease the situation was stated as so:

"A successful repair will likely involve enhancing the music store software, the music jukebox software, and the software in the players with new secrets, then transferring this updated software into the tens (or hundreds) of millions of Macs, Windows PCs and players already in use."

Jobs feels that companies would need to work together in order to prevent the leaks. He wants to be able to work as one to help out each company. I understand Jobs position and how his alternatives came about, and how he is looking for the best of Apple. There can always be ways to prevent but it will be extremely difficult to completely eliminate. Someone will always seem to find a way, but trying to stop it is at least a step.
