Fascinating breakdown of customer-centric vs. product-centric marketing! The MP3 player examples really drive the point home. (I still use mine btw)

Your analysis reminds me of Clayton Christensen's 'Jobs to be Done' theory. It's not about the product itself but the 'job' customers are 'hiring' it to do. Thank you, Mack!

You're right, Mack. I don't think I ever heard of MP Man, but I did own a Rio. Marketing works.
