But I’m a ride-or-die fan of the iPod Classic, which they stopped making in 2014, though it’s easy to find them refurbished online. Myplaylist has “Right Where You Left Me” on it six times, because in a perfect world, this song would be on every Taylor Swift album at least twice. So what if my Classic is technically obsolete? Trends change, rumors fly through new skies, but I never leave the house without an iPod. If Apple wants to take it away, they’ll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands.
Listening to the iPod, you’re off the grid. You are not being tracked, measured, counted, rated, studied, data-mined, or researched. It’s nobody’s business, just you and the tunes. It keeps track of play counts, but that’s just for your personal stat-crunching amusement — it doesn’t judge you. When Apple debuted these shiny gadgets in 2001, it seemed obvious that a song, even a digital one, was worth owning. You had Kazaa, Limewire, Gnutella, ZShare, eMusic — so many ways to curate your own private MP3 stash. You could listen to your System of a Down tunes because they were yours. You didn’t get asked for a password. The only two-factor verification you needed was “I cry” and “When angels deserve to die.
iPods were for plebs who believed the lie that Apple invented the MP3 player
I sold tech to businesses in ‘01 when I walked into the office lobby one day and an Apple rep was there demo-ing the first iPod. I salivated, and the rep knew it. 4 hours later my name was picked and I won it. Never looked back. True love. ❤️ 🍎 📱
