I-Pods

By ref: sdhnb

The I-pod has been the invention of the decade as it has changed the way billions of people listen to music. Together, the I-pod and the mp3 music download are slowly pushing the CD (which by comparison could be called old-fashioned) to one side.

Though CDs are still selling in the millions every week, for the most part they will be used once (to put the contents onto ones I-pod) and then will spend the rest of its life as a drinks coaster or simply a redundant disc cluttering up space.

Although there were other mp3 player before the I-pod revolution, they were nowhere near as successful as the I-pod, one of which belongs to most of the music-listening world, which is pretty much everyone in the physical world.

You could argue that the reason for this is that the I-pod has better functionality and a far more user-friendly interface than other mp3 players that came previously. I would say that this a fair argument to make.

The early mp3 players tended to be smaller and only had a small screen which couldnt fit a great deal of information on it, Whereas the I-pod has a far bigger screen and so is able to list tracks in a much more effective way.

The I-pod also had a touch pad which was something that not too many people had used before, and so that made it exciting and almost futuristic to use and to have.

Another selling point for the I-pod is its versatility. Not only does it play music, but also videos, pictures and even games on the newer versions.

So for a great all-in-one way to store and listen to all your favourite music, watch video clips you love, or just to pass the time with some great games, an I-pod is the solution. - 18424
