Most retarded video ever. Their entire argument is based on the fact that they believe making a new recipe using other peoples 'ingredients' is not noteworthy or innovation... That is by far one of the most fucking retarded things I have ever heard. It's like saying I make this really amazing dinner, and its my secret recipe, but no its really not that special and unique or inventive, because the carrots I used were grown on a farm somewhere that I didn't grow.
Coming up with an original idea in this day and age is pretty hard. We have such a strong foundation for technology now that almost any new 'idea' can be linked to some older piece of technology. But since when does combining ideas or taking old ideas and making them better so they are actually feasible products that people will use take away from that persons innovation? I understand why that video was made. I understand how Apple's patent litigation is actually preventing progression. But they are essentially making it sound like anybody could combine things together and that is nothing special.But in reality the genius is not the physical components or ingredients, but how everything comes together in the final product.
