Antithetical? How long has Apple led the market in MP3 players? Most
rivals which sprang up after the initial iPods have fallen by the
wayside. Certainly MP3 players aren't aimed at the high-quality side of
that fence, and Apple has still managed to lead in that marketplace
while still maintaining the high-quality side of the fence in the
personal computer world.
