Suddenly, Every Commercial Is An Apple Copycat (AAPL)

TMobile MyTouch Commercial

Whether you are an Apple fan or not, there's no denying the company's advertising style.

The now-dead "Get a Mac" campaign has been parodied everywhere. And before that came the "Switch" series of commercials.

It shouldn't come as a surprise that along with the parodies came serious ad campaigns attempting to copy Apple's style: the white background, schlubby competitor, folksy-hip music (think Feist), and sleek product demos.

Apple shouldn't feel too threatened. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery after all.
