Hardly trivializing anything. Apple does not create stuff because it can. It creates products for its customers. Listen to Steve Jobs at the recent All Things D conference. Apple does not just create a product because it can or thinks it is creative or great. It identifies a market, and figures out how to best make a product for that market.

I think you confuse Apple with Microsoft which tends to make products because it can and most of them fail (Surface, Zune, Kin to name a FEW).

So, bad example.
