Why Steve Jobs is a success

He "gets it" in an intuitive way that committees of other people cannot.

I normally don't like to do such a direct ripoff of someone else's post, but in this case I can't add anything. From Newsweek, via Daring Fireball: Steve Jobs is asked if he's worried about the Zune.

“In a word, no. I’ve seen the demonstrations on the Internet about how you can find another person using a Zune and give them a song they can play three times. It takes forever. By the time you’ve gone through all that, the girl’s got up and left! You’re much better off to take one of your earbuds out and put it in her ear. Then you’re connected with about two feet of headphone cable.”
