Please Direct Your Attention To The Tiny Screen In Your Hand
Man, we’ve done everything we can possibly be expected to do to make sure everyone who wants a personal, portable media player has got one. We’ve sold these iPod Video models several times now, we’ve sold them at a good price, and they’re totally great. They have a bunch of neat features, a clever and intuitive UI, and they hold up to 80 gigs of music, videos and photos. So let’s just assume that at this point, anyone who wants to watch stupid cable news programs at the airport has brought his own stupid cable news programs on an iPod Video.
Our hat’s off to those considerate travelers! Watching a video on one of these fifth-generation iPods doesn’t bother anybody. No one else has to look at the screen. No one else can hear what’s in your earphones (assuming you keep them at a reasonable volume). It’s what you might call civilized.
So what do we make of someone who’s sitting in the gate area not watching a cable news video? That he or she is too poor to afford a personal media player? No, these iPods are cheaper than airfare. That the supply of personal media players is simply insufficient to meet the demand, leaving some unfortunate wretches out of luck? A quick look around at the many piles of ‘em in our warehouse makes it impossible for us to believe that. Maybe, just maybe, such a person has actually decided he’d rather not watch a video just now. Maybe he even has an iPod Video in his carry-on bag, but isn’t in a video-watching mood! (At CNN, someone is probably saying: “NOT IN THE MOOD TO WATCH LOU DOBBS ON TELEVISION? UNPOSSIBLE!”)
Honestly, we don’t know how we could make these things more widely available. At this late stage of market saturation, anyone who doesn’t have one… doesn’t want one.
Look at it like this. If you had a bunch of people over at your house, and they were all in your living room having a pleasant conversation, or reading books, or taking naps, and you went “oh, hey, I’m going to watch some Lou Dobbs now” and turned a huge TV on to CNN, your guests would probably be like: WTF? We were having a conversation, or reading, or taking a nap. And they would be right. You would be behaving obnoxiously.
That’s you, whoever put the TVs in every airport terminal in the country. You’re a big, fat, stupid, obnoxious jerkface, and we personally hate you.
