When compared side by side, don't this Apple commercial and The Postal Service's "Such Great Heights" music video look too similar?

ITs funny when i read the title of this article i though the US Postal Service got into the music video industry. But ya after watching both the videos it does seem Apple had some inspirations from the video.

    And their Eminem iPod ad was a borderline rip-off of a Lugz ad from the late 90s. I still like their products and design, but they do need to get more original ad people.
