And HMTKSteve, I'm not aware of Jobs saying anything like that -- although it's possible that he did. I looked around in Google for a bit this morning and couldn't find anything, although I did come across the quote that Mark mentions a few times. Thanks for the comments, Mark (and Steven).

He's just getting the market to be on his side when he confronts the labels with this, and thus reduce the cost he'll have to pay to get it. Remember that Universal's going in position is a few dollars per iPod sold, a la its Zune deal. And there’s another self-serving reason: Apple’s negotiations with the labels are coming up.
