If napster doesn't come down, no iTunes, no iTunes then I don't even know if Apple would be around today.

Revionist history. There were those who were completely at odds with using Napster and number 2. Most people used iTunes to manage their iPod, not to buy music. I think I remember reading that only about 25% of all music on iPods was bought at a digital download site.
No, Apple built hardware that people wanted to buy (even though there were devices with more
features on the market at the same time)
Nice try, though.
