While Steve Jobs did not "invent" the iPod, he had considerable influence in the design and development of the iPod. Unheard of influence for a modern day CEO. In addition, he had to approve the project in the first place. Jobs can, by all rights, claim credit for the iPod as much as anyone can.

can I blame him when album art mysteriously disappears?

can I blame him that I won't get the latest firmware because if you press the center button too quickley to get to the ratings screen the ipod hangs?

can I blame him when the first song is skipped at random but frequent intervals?

can I blame him that the battery meter was innaccurate?

can I blame him that I had to spend and extra $20 for a screen protector because my friend's ipod got scratched just by putting it in the case the ipod comes with?

true, but that legacy has been crapped on by such straight to DVD crapfests as Little Mermaid 2, any/all Lion King sequels, Aladdin sequels, etc. That's why the Pixar films are so desparetly needed by Disney, who have either sufforcated it's own animation dept. with unneccessary adherences to standards and practices, or have driven real talent to Pixar.
