Steve Jobs on iTunes: What if the right computer was in everyone's hands?
What Jobs talks about
This recording does not contain a substantive Steve Jobs discussion about iTunes. Instead, the transcript is a trailer-style sequence that includes a single Jobs line: “What if the right computer was in everyone's hands?”
Because the source is unidentified and the transcript is clearly not an iTunes talk, it should be treated as a mismatch rather than a true Jobs interview or keynote.
Jobs does not speak in a real interview here; the transcript is trailer narration with film dialogue and a Jobs line.
In his words
“What if the right computer was in everyone's hands?”
“The board believes you're no longer necessary to that.”
“I'm not okay losing.”
“Is there a plan?”
“The plan will reveal itself to you when you're ready to see it.”
Key points
- The only clear Jobs line is a broad statement about putting the right computer in everyone’s hands.
- The rest of the transcript is trailer narration and cast listing, not a Steve Jobs conversation.
- The recording label suggests iTunes, but the transcript points to a film promo instead.
- There is no usable discussion of iTunes, Apple, or product strategy in the transcript.
