The next time Dylan played nearby, he invited Jobs to drop by his tricked-up tour bus just before the concert.
迪倫再一次到附近演出時，他邀請喬布斯在演出前到他乘的旅行車上來坐坐。
When Dylan asked what his favorite song was, Jobs said "One Too Many Mornings." So Dylan sang it that night.
他問喬布斯最喜歡什么歌，喬布斯提到了《多余的清晨》，于是迪倫當(dāng)晚就唱了這首歌。
After the concert, as Jobs was walking out the back, the tour bus came by and screeched to a stop.
演出結(jié)束后，喬布斯走在回家的路上，一輛旅行車駛過他身旁，發(fā)出了剌耳的剎車聲。
The door flipped open. "So, did you hear my song I sang for you?" Dylan rasped. Then he drove off.
車門滑開了。“喂，你聽到我為你唱的歌了嗎？”依舊是迪倫沙啞的聲音。然后車就開走了。
When Jobs tells the tale, he does a pretty good impression of Dylan's voice.
當(dāng)喬布斯講到這段故事的時候，他表示非常欣賞迪倫的嗓音。
"He's one of my all-time heroes," Jobs recalled.
他回憶道：“他是我心目中經(jīng)久不衰的英雄之一。
"My love for him has grown over the years, it's ripened.
我對他的喜愛隨著時間而生長，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)成熟。
I can't figure out how he did it when he was so young."
我無法想象他在那么年輕時就取得了成功。”
A few months after seeing him in concert, Jobs came up with a grandiose plan.
在演唱會見到迪倫之后的幾個月，喬布斯想到了一個偉大的計劃。
The iTunes Store should offer a digital "boxed set" of every Dylan song every recorded,
iTunes商店將推出一套迪倫的打包專輯，里面收錄了迪倫的每一首歌曲，
more than seven hundred in all, for $199.
總共超過700首，售價199美元。
Jobs would be the curator of Dylan for the digital age.
喬布斯將成為迪倫進(jìn)軍數(shù)字時代的監(jiān)護(hù)人。
But Andy Lack of Sony, which was Dylan's label, was in no mood to make a deal without some serious concessions regarding iTunes.
但是迪倫的唱片公司屬于索尼，而索尼的安迪·拉克對這筆生意并不感興趣，除非iTunes作出一些讓步。
In addition, Lack felt the price was too low and would cheapen Dylan.
另外，拉克認(rèn)為199美元的價格太低了，貶低了迪倫的價值。
"Bob is a national treasure," said Lack, "and Steve wanted him on iTunes at a price that commoditized him."
拉克說：“鮑勃是國家級的珍寶，而喬布斯要把他的作品以一個低價放進(jìn)iTunes，把他商品化。”
It got to the heart of the problems that Lack and other record executives were having with Jobs:
這就觸及了拉克和其他唱片業(yè)高層人士與喬布斯?fàn)幷摰暮诵模?/div>
He was getting to set the price points, not them. So Lack said no.
是喬布斯成了價格制定者，而不是他們。所以拉克拒絕了喬布斯的合作建議。
