Actually I agree with Jim -- I myself don't like the Starbucks coffee that much, and I think they do rely heavily on our primitive yearnings for foamy milk. But I used the example because of its effect on the market and the culture. That is, I think a lot of people do think Starbucks is good, and I think it has made fancy coffee consumption more mainstream, and more discriminating.
