Sounds like one of those "idea guys" who thinks everything they think of is brilliant, but doesn't have the talent, discipline, and skill it takes to create anything. People like that get on my nerves. Learn a skill other than sales.

He's certainly not an idea guy, he's the founder of cd baby if you know what it is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_Baby

Well, he did create CD Baby which was (and still is) a fairly successful company. And my understanding is that he wrote a fair amount of code there.
