Have you watched The Defiant Ones[1] on HBO? I can't exactly recall if they were giving Beats out to players for free, but there is a segment of the documentary where they talk about how ubiquitous Beats became because players were shown wearing them in the pregame. You could be pretty spot on with your assumption.

There is a great footage of him being interviewed in the recent hbo documentary The defiant ones.
There's a really interesting, recently released HBO documentary called "The Defiant Ones"[1] which is about the story of Interscope Records, Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre. Trent Reznor is interviewed in it, because he has worked with Jimmy Iovine for quite some time. Iovine, Dre and Reznor all come across as very smart, humble and incredibly hard working individuals.
Here's a clip regarding Nine Inch Nails and Iovine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPJZdtyXAVo
The whole four episodes are well worth watching.
