  Also everyone will stop using iPods because they realized the truth that was always there which is that having a separate device for listening to music, when you already have a portable computer in your pocket is stupid.

    I’m legitimately wondering if you’re young enough to not know that the iPod came WAY before the first iPhone, which was the first widely adopted smart phone.

      You could play your music from your phone quite a good bit before the first iPhone. But even then, IIRC the iPod came before that was common.
      Never understood what it did different to a regular mp3 player though.

        You clearly have never heard a 32kbps mp3 coming out of a 2002 phone speaker.

        Yeah, that is true, but it’s also true like the other guy said, it was absolutely not worth it and sounded terrible.
