? AppleTV and Apple Music are not decades ahead of anything. AirPods are way better than the existing Bluetooth headsets that were on the market.

Maybe they aren’t “decades ahead” but they’re examples of Apple being slow to market, launching very competitive products years after the market was established.

E.g. assuming Apple Vision launches soon, they’ll be “many years behind” Quest from the date of first launch, but most likely miles ahead as far as usability.
