A few of these iPod videos have been popping up on my YouTube feed over the last year or so, I decided to watch this one. It almost made me want to dig out one of my old iPods.
Nostalgia is one hell of a drug.
My guess is since more schools are banning phones and other communication devices, iPod are music only so kids/teens can still have them.
I got an r4 from hiby and added a plugin so that the music sounds like a live performance, the difference is too big to go back after thatI bought this one about a month ago
Sound is incredible. Plug in some good headphones, and it's on a different level from a cell phone. Also:

I loved the Zune and was head over heels for the Zune HD. Unfortunately too little, too late and it was immediately destined to fail when it didn't have an App Store.No joke, the Zune is probably the best thing MS ever made.
Had this one as well! It was fantastic!![]()
This is what I had back in the day. It ran on a single triple a battery and didn't need a cable to connect to a pc since you could slide out part of it and connect it directly. Had a cumbersome interface, but it got me through high school.
I had a Zune HD after several iPods and it was the BEST music player I've ever hadI'll stick with my zune thank you very much.

They seem readily available. There is an entire modding community around the 5th and 7th gen iPods. Custom firmware, increased storage capacity, custom faceplate, etc. It's really simple and easy as well from the few videos I've seen.Do they still have replacement batteries for these things??

My iRiver E10 gave up a while back and I've tried to find something as good again, but it's mostly just cheap Aliexpress music players. It'd be cool if a good company like Sony or Apple made one last stellar music player with physical buttons.

I got it over an iPod because this bad boy had 30 GIGABYTES(!!!) of storage for like half the price. In 2004. That'd be like having 30 terabytes in portable format today.
Jez Cordon, is that you ?
