Linn thinks they make the greatest turntables under the sun. They think vinyl is the be all and end of music reproduction. But they make digital hardware. Doesn't mean they are hypocrites.

When Spielberg says that one of his Apple streamed movies should be nominated for an Oscar - then you may have something.

If Linn had said that the CD format was inherently inferior to vinyl because--well, it wasn't vinyl, and then came out with a CD player a month later, THAT would be analogous to what Spielberg did yesterday.

I think Spielberg is a major talent, but he's also a bit of a weasel when it comes to business dealings. For the best account of it, read Julia Phillips' "You'll Never Eat Lunch in This Town Again," one of the funniest and best books about Hollywood, IMHO.
