How the iPod Took Over the World

In an interview with Newsweek on the fifth anniversary of the iPod, Steve Jobs explains how he got the music labels to go along with the iTunes store. What he describes is a classic example of how a disruptive technology can creep up from the edges before taking the world by storm.

That's certainly true for the iPod. First it was digital music for the Mac crowd. Then for all PCs. Then it added video. And now everyone is waiting for the iPhone. Creeping disruption is definitely the way to go.
