To iPod on its 15th birthday: Thanks for revolutionizing digital music
Excellent points and yes those would have helped this article tell the story of the iPod! You missed just one - completely changed the music business for ever!brakken said:Take the memes outta this article, and it's even shorter, and quite empty, but not so irritating.
I wish Dilger had written on this topic: historical context, insight, wit, and healthy sarcasm!
The iPod was proof that Apple and Jobs had the right ideas, understanding, and execution, and this article is incredibly weak. Is the author an Android user, or merely shallow?
I feel insulted that this is the best AppleInsider can do.
Points and details missed:
iPod was built using the tech ms tried to kill off in the 90's
iTMS was built using tech removed from dell
Jobs didn't design the iPod
Cook was responsible for all logistics - pattern of efficiency set
iPod set stage for Apple to change name
Nano pre-empted Watch
ms repeatedly tried destroying iPod
iTMS and iPod were directly responsible for introducing ms-entrenched to Apple's elegant user experience, such as me!
iPod profits were directly related to iPhone
The iPod app
The end of the iPod app with Music
The derived, vapid, superficial article as presented above completely fails to capture the resounding changes iPod brought to Apple, the music industry, the vaporware business model of ms, and millions of people, if not billions. This product was prelude to both iPhone and Watch, and deserves just a little more thought and acknowledgement, wouldn't you say?
Or was that Drake? /s

Google debuts Pixel 'Phone by Google,' with heavy emphasis on photography
Why did Google make a VR headset in "crimeson"? Why not blue to match their NEW phone? Apparently Google VR didn't know what color phones where coming out today, oops....
