10 years of the Apple iPod

The iPod mini was replaced by a new tiny digital music device known as the iPod nano, which arrived on 7 September 2005.
Initial models offered 1GB, 2GB or 4GB of storage. Though the Nano didn't hold a massive amount of music, it appealed to those that wanted a reasonably priced music player that looked the part and did the job. The 2010-launched mini touchscreen iPod nanos with 8GB or 16GB options (pictured) still remain one of Apple's current big-sellers.

I got to admit that it took a while for me to purchase an mp3 player (ardent audiophile, vinyl better than c.d ect) but when i did it had to be the 6th generation160gb, from an audiophiles perspective they are a god send, never thought i'd carry in excess of 45,000 songs in my pockect, user interface is astounding, sound is pretty astonishing as well. Connect it to the high end system indoors and it still performs reasonably well, if there is a better large capacity mp3 player available, i've yet to see one. Well done Jobs!

in the 90s, I always used to say to anyone who would listen that what I would like more than anything was my own personal juke box in my house- when the iPod came along- I thought- this is it! this has been invented just for me- it's everything I want- I am now on my 4th iPod and would rather not have a mobile than an iPod! One thing I wish they would do is allow crossfade of songs on the iPod- i've got over 7000 songs on now-still adding!

My first iPod, was Nano 2nd generation and I had it for a few good years (I still have it), then I got the iPod touch 4th generation, it was amazing and finally I got the iPhone 4, and I totally love that phone! And that's coming from a person who had a Blackberry for nearly a year and half :-) THANKS APPLE!

I brought my first Ipod touch last year it is 64gb which is great for lots of apps and music. what I dont understand is why Apple have not improved the music quality. I still keep and use my Sony Walkmans with a built in amp which is of a fantastic sound and quality but you can only get them in 32gb. In my opinion an ipod touch is a pretty good all rounder but if you want it just for music quality there is so much better on the market. If Apple was to do this there would be no competition!

I got my first MP3 player for Christmas 2007. It was a Creative Zen. I did consider getting an iPod but it was always a question of price and useability. Apple was so pertinent in the consumer market they wouldn't let the price be reduced without affecting quality yet other companies did offer alternatives with some surprisingly better features. My personal music player was an MP4 player that cost £99. An Apple iPod nano at the time cost almost twice that amount. However now that I have more money and demand for greater gameplay from apps I'm going to get an iPod Touch later this year.
