...Although its sound quality was noticeably inferior, Belkin?s TuneStage did get one thing right-it drew juice from the iPod?s own battery, so its streaming adapter was smaller and didn?t need to be charged.

Sony, for example isn’t happy about all of this – their substitute product hasn’t fared nearly as well as the iPod, and while this could be the result of inferior design or lesser advertising, it might be worth considering the possibility that there are more sinister forces in play.Apple, it turns out, has other products and services, among them the well-regarded and quite successful iTunes Music Store—a haven where music-lovers can, for just a dollar...
