Why did Apple spend so much time on Garageband during the iPad 2 announcement today? They revolutionized the music industry once with iPods & then with iTunes and they are ready to do it again. Except, now they’re on the other side of the table. Sure, it may not seem that strumming on a virtual guitar is going to be a game changer, but as usual, don’t underestimate Apple, and more importantly, their target market with such releases. I’m also excited to see what other apps will be released that harness the new capabilities. Producing music already had low barriers of entry; Apple just lowered them further. I can’t wait to see what this will really look like. It all starts on March 11th!
