<<Buying Beats seems like an admission of brain freeze in the idea department at Apple.
Never thought I'd see this day! End of an era :(>>

Uh?

The era ended before Steve died.

This is a better era, share buybacks, the end of continuous dilution, a dividend and a commitment to annual dividend increases.

These are good things. The hyper-growth years are over. Buying companies that bring the possibility of continued growth, like Steve did when he bought the company that became iTunes - those days are still here.

Celebrate them.
