In a brief interview in yesterday's Newsweek, Steve Jobs took the opportunity to renew his pledge to keep iTunes song prices steady in the face of "greedy" record companies who would raise them.

Ironically, the Leader of the company built upon catering to those who consider the mob to be sheep, also shot down the myth of "popular = uncool":

Some people say that iPod might lose its cachet because it's too popular—how can it be cool when Dick Cheney and Queen Elizabeth have one?

That's like saying you don't want to kiss your lover's lips because everyone has lips. It doesn't make any sense. We don't strive to appear cool. We just try to make the best products we can. And if they are cool, well, that's great.
