Steve Jobs responds to iTunes icon e-mail.

An e-mail is sent to Steve Jobs complaining about the new iTunes icon. It pointed out that it ruined over 10 years of instant product recognition. Some people have started to amateurish.

Apple announced the reason behind this change, however, saying that iTunes will likely surpass physical CD sales. So it's time to make CDs of thing of the past.

These changes have even triggered applications such as iTunes 109 that returns to look and feel of iTunes 9.

For those who wanted to see what he wrote.

Steve,

Enjoyed the presentation today. But...this new iTunes logo really sucks. You're taking 10+ years of instant product recognition and replacing it with an unknown. Let's both cross our fingers on this...

He simply wrote back with one of his brief, to-the-point emails:
We disagree.
