We'll steer clear of a lengthy eulogy, but without Steve Jobs, much of this site would be far less interactive than it is.
The iTunes charts to the right would simply not exist without Apple's digital music downloads store.
Our text and image links to albums on iTunes - a common feature of our reviews - would be impossible too, leaving all of our readers facing the journey to their local record shop (like when I was growing up...) to get the latest releases.
As for you lot - your entire record collections fit in your pockets. And half of you have probably never held a vinyl record, anyway.
While many of today's tributes focus on the iPhone and iPad, let's remember, in our little music-centric corner of the internet, that Steve Jobs' legacy will live on in every iPod dock and digital download, from now until - at the very least - the Next Big Thing in the evolution of digital music comes along.
RIP Steve Jobs.
