It's truly sad that he's so often quoted as an expert by news sources that don't know any better, and that people who don't know any better hear (or read) his opinions as if they mattered.

That guy Enderle is such idiot. Anyone with half a brain knows all they have to do is burn a copy of your tunes purchased from itunes. Boom. No more DRM. iTunes users do not have to repurchase there songs, if they decide to move to another mp3player.....

This is just the "internet blog sunlight" that internet blogs provide. All the crappy, stupidity, fallacies, poor reading of stats, biased reading of stats and just wrong thinking will get the full internet sunlight treatment. Dissected and laid bare poor reasoning doesn't stand a chance on the Internet. And as you know cockroaches hate the sunlight. they'll recede to their dark little corners. Bye bye little cock-a roach Enderle, now off to your dank little corner. And then he wonders why the NY Times doesn’t want him as a contributor?

We should all avoid going to websites that publish inflamatory Mac stories, knowing they did it solely to attract irate Mac fans/fanatics. He's a fool, we all know it; next story!

I once asked him who the other members of the Enderle Group might be, other than, say, his cat. He replied that the cat & he pretty much formed the entire group. The quality of Rob's "analysis" has definitely declined since the cat quit. Years ago, Rob Enderle used to troll comp.sys.mac.advocacy and would always drop “The Enderle Group” in his sig.
