Genuine question.

I know they were the scrappy startup doing different cool things. But, what are the most major innovative things that they introduced, improved or just implemented that either revolutionized, improved or spurred change?

I am aware of the possibility of both fanboys and haters just duking it out below. But there's always that one guy who has a fkn well-formatted paragraph of gold. I await that guy.

...but it was still an incremental step over what already existed. Apple's whole thing is to improve what already exists, and pretend like they invented it.

They didn’t pretend they invented the MP3 player. Steve Jobs slagged the existing ones when he announced the iPod. He just said they were badly designed and he was right.
