(fax) "Doing nothing?"

[Warren Lapham]

Let's all remember that the $225 million in question came from my  
wondering aloud (to the list) about where the mystery 25% went.  The  
fact of the matter is that we don't know where that money goes.   
Unless someone has some actual data (you know, from Apple), I really  
don't think the list is the place to speculate about the intricacies  
of the design, construction, and maintenance of iTunes Music Store....

...beyond, of course, how much we think PK gets from every dollar/ 
euro/rupee/et cetera spent on FAX material there.

I don't think anyone here was arguing that.  The closest thing was  
Dave Gilliss speculating that Jobs seems to be in it for his ego and  
not his wallet at this point.  (I'm paraphrasing, of course.)  Nice  
straw man, though.

We all know how to vote with our wallets, right?  Let's all continue  
to do that and let this drop.

Cool?  Cool.
