He's the exception that proves the rule. A few years ago, when he debuted 
iTunes/iPod, the music iindustry was extremely pissed off at him. His basic 
slogan was "Rip, Mix, Burn", which was equivalent of "F*** you" to the 
recording industry. 

Now he's their best friend because iTunes is so popular. They're now wanting 
to jack up prices, but Steve is, again, telling them to go fornicate 
themselves. 

He can get away with that stuff because he has a foot in both camps. That's 
a very rare thing indeed.
