I don't think you're giving Microsoft enough credit here. Sure they follow other company's paths, but they still have a large market segment.
Apple may have the iPod and iTune, but personally I have no intention of using either one as Apple's content control is offensive to me.

Welcome to linux, where you're in charge :)

I fricking loved my CDTV (got the complete multimedia pack - k/b, mouse, disk drive) when they were £250 in Comet.
 
When I upgraded to an A1200, I had it Parnet'd for a long time. Sold it around 2002 to a guy in Finland for £200.

To me, the CDTV was always the legendary machine. Saw advertisements for it in amiga magazines but never knew anyone who had one. What did you do with it? What notable or remarkable software did you have for it?
 
Tell me more :)
 
Most online articles about it are full of armchair hindsight "this is why it failed" stuff, rather than talk about the actual damn machine
