That’s the most important part! How did Panic got it? Why did they had to wait 20 years? Some trade secret deal expired?

It might have something to do with the time they almost ended up selling their MP3 player Audion to Apple and turning it into iTunes.

(I would link to their story about that but it seems to have not made the transition from a standalone page on their site to their blog.)
