                                Tom Petty: Real musician and songwriter with actual talent, whose music will live on for ages.

                                Tim McGraw: Totally replaceable Nash-Pop frontman with no discernible talent, who has never written a song in his life, and whose generic "performances" are forgotten as soon as they're over.

                                      I heard this on the news this morning, I'm glad that there is still some separation between these massive businesses.

                                      That's all we need, globally, one less company producing chips.
