I love his ability to rally the troops. I love his marketing skills and vision in some areas. But Steve has glaring weaknesses that keep coming up. Failure to make conservative predictions(iTunes, 3Ghz) have made his statements a little less concrete. Adequately protecting a person IP is fine with me but even the mere suggestion that HD burners shouldn't come bundled with computers border on insane. The computer industry doesn't not create tech for the sake of the entertainment industry. Steve is simply gaining favor with Hollyweird execs should he need to partner with them someday. He knows well that HD Burners are just as much a necessity as the playback drives themselves. Apple is heavily vested in the tools required to produce HD content. There is no way they cannot complete the circle.
