A good example: the music industry. For me, most of the artists with more sales are crap...
You might like unsuccessful artists - but just because you like them does not make them leaders or have brand value or more innovation

Nokia R&D budget is enormous and they have massess of patents (you know like innovation) - like the one they are suing apple over about aerials - hence the iphone 4 clusterf

What nokia haven't done is levereaged their products using anti-competitve practices (tieing them to providers etc) in order to maximise profits - which might not be great for shareholders, but who gives a monkeys about fatcats anyways - it is good for customers
