Interview to Steve Jobs

The interview broadcast on the television program "El Hormiguero", in 2009


Interviewer: Tonight I'm going to interview Steve Jobs, the co-founder and CEO of Apple and shareholder of The Walt Disney Company.
  Good evening Steve Jobs, you're welcome to our program.
Interviewee: It's a pleasure to be here.
Interviewer: So I will start with the questions. What would you say to customers who just bought a new iPhone for $ 599? I'm sorry?
Interviewee:  This is technology, if they bought it this morning they should go back to the store and talk to them. If they bought it a month ago, well, that's what happens with technology.
Interviewer. So what about your agreement to distribute the Beatles music on iTunes? What is the status?
Interviewee:  We would love to have the Beatles. And it will end up happening... I hope that for the first half of the next year. As soon as they are ready, we will be too.
Interviewer: There's a lot of people that already have the Beatles music in CDs. Are you sure they will buy something they already have in iTunes?
Interviewee:  Yes, I believe in that. It's just what happened with the rest of the record industry.
Interviewer: iPod touch is really similar to iPhone. The only thing missing is the integrated camera and the telephone function in iPod touch. Are you worried about they could look too similar?
Interviewee: Well, I reckon they have similarity, but this is not something to worry about, because there's no rival, and we can't lose money.
Interviewer: It is speculated that in the future artificial intelligence will be one of the most important aspects of modern technology.
Are you worried that this may affect your company, or how can it be a way to innovate and increase Apple's popularity?
Interviewee: No, I think it will be a favor for us, because we have one of the best computer support specialized in robotics and artificial intelligence.
Interviewer: I'm impressed. I'm sorry Steve but we beat the interviewing time. Thanks for coming to our program tonight.
Interviewee: Thanks for inviting me, it has been entertaining.
