The Recording Academy has decided to recognize this, naming the former CEO and Apple co-founder [Steve Jobs](http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/05/steve-jobs-co-fouder-of-apple-is-dead-at-56/) for a Trustees Award for "outstanding contributions to the industry in a non-performing capacity." It will be the second Grammy to celebrate Apple's contributions to the music industry -- its working in recording netted it a Technical Grammy exactly ten years ago.
