I agree. Apple wants content available-movies, TV, music, books and magazines, to sell the hardware delivery system.

But I've seen little evidence to date that they see that content to be a major revenue stream (unlike Amazon and B&N, who see the content as the major revenue stream, and want as many devices as possible to serve as the delivery system).
