That’d be impossible to separate. You’d have to break-up hardware and services.

 

never heard of Nomad before but that is terrible. We know objectively what they did worked and like most things apple does, UX was great, this is just one instance where I don't think the UI matches up. For me it looks minimal but somehow bulky, it just doesn't align.

 

I love this damn thing. I would gladly get rid of my touch screen phone and use something that looked like this, if it wasn't for the camera feature. If my phone didn't take good pics I would have to carry a camera around with me everywhere I went.

 

Me at my kids' soccer game:

 

I could never go back to the scroll wheel (or whatever they called it) after using a touch screen, just the time it saves alone.

 

I’m old enough where this was my original iPod

 

I definitely remember these and remember using them, but really for me, by the time I was getting big into listening to music I remember having a round Aiwa cd player for sitting still and a silver Sony Discman with anti-skip shock protection for mowing the lawn and going for runs.

 

I remember the like shock adsorbent cd players. thats what i used until senior year when i got a iPod mini for a gift

 

I’ve had a 160 GB iPod classic for years because it’s the only iPod with that much storage space. At the end of June it disappeared somewhere with my car keys and I’ve never been able to find it despite searching everywhere. I’m still sad about it.

 

One of my favorite films

 

Still have one of those bad boys myself

 

Remember those suicides at iPhone plants in China and then like, nothing changed?

Good times.

 

I miss the click wheel

 

of course she's from Long Island

 

Remember when everyone got mad at me for saying she was backtracking on this?

 

I had a mini-disc player as a teen because my parent's could never buy the "cool" item they always went with the cheaper, non cool gift. From music players to video game consoles, it was consistent.

 

my first mobile music player was some kind of 2004-era blue round walkman but i definitely do not have it anymore lol

 

see this is why even though i was born in 1996 i am millenial instead of gen z. no one in gen z ever owned a "cd player"

 

I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called but my first MP3 player was something I got from Target that was like $50 at most in 2003 or 2004 and I remember the interface for it on the computer was something only a coding expert could understand. Got my first iPod (Nano, 2nd gen I think) when I was 16 and it changed my life
