Steve was asked about the majors willing to increase the online music price. He formally rejected this idea, arguing that the music sold online is already more profitable as there was no specific promotion, and that to increase the price would be calling for more piracy.
Steve has indicated that the first MacIntel will not be released before June 2006.

To conclude, mac-dedicated websites, or magazine were NOT invited to this Q&A Conference...
