Execs on Jobs

EXECS REMEMBER STEVE JOBS: Lucian Grainge: "Steve was a magnetic personality and a fierce intellectual debater of all things music, ranging from piracy to specific discussions about lyrics." Edgar Bronfman: "To be a genius in any field is rare enough; to be a genius in three is impossible. Steve did the impossible. His incomparable brilliance in technology, design and business transformed not only the music industry, but many others, and in the process, changed our world." Roger Faxon: "Steve had an incredible ability to harness the power of innovation to satisfy and stimulate consumer demand in a way that few have ever been able to achieve. Marty Bandier: “The biggest upside [of Jobs' work in music] was that he made a new generation realize that they had to pay for music—and that is a tough battle when you are competing against free.” (10/7a)
