Man, the nostalgia. My first digital player was a 30gb iPod Video back in 2006. I loaded that baby up with all kinds of music, anime episodes and AMVs, and rocked it back in high school. It was an absolute godsend during those hour long, boring bus rides to/from school everyday. It just felt so amazing having all that packed into one tiny device and being able to take it anywhere. I have an iPhone now, but it just doesn’t compare to that absolutely magical feeling from back then. I still have my newer iPod, but these days since the iPhone does everything, I really only use it when I want my full mp3 library. Rip iPod, you will be missed.

Meaning that if you use a philips screwdriver on a JIS screw; the connection will be loose and you're more likely to strip the screw in the attempt to unscrew

You know, I may get an iPod Touch when they're clearing it out and just...not open it, just keep one sealed as a collectors item, cause the iPod Touch was kind of my first portible media player if you don't count portible game systems like the DS, DSi and 3DS (the latter of which I lost, incidentally.). I have a personal connection to the iPod and it will be mourned heavily by me. It's never fun to see something from your childhood die. I'm still trying to adjust to a world without Qubo, and will be sorely underprepaired for that dark day when we lose Spongebob. also I now want a Fiio because I actually don't like apple too much, and I want *POWER* Seriously tho, props to Fiio for basically continuing to carry the torch for crazy-ass music players.

as someone with a whole ipod collection, (literally, i was everyone single type of ipod, colors, and all of the storage types, even some rare ones, (even the first ever made ipod), but this means i cant get anymore and see what's one them, i wont be able to mod them and sell them for much cheaper than other people are selling them for, it is really sad for a person that always used ipods ever since my brother showed me them, thank you apple for a decade of music streaming, the ipod will be missed

My mum who worked in music owned two iPods, I didn’t know what they were for since I was growing up during the birth of the iPhone and it was just disused gadgets living in a drawer but I remember playing Vortex and a gun turret game (I don’t remember what it was called) the clickwheel really fascinated younger me and eventually one day after coming home from primary school my mum sat me and my sister down in my bedroom and opened up a shiny iPod Touch, I was bedazzled by how thin and sleek it was and it was always with us hooked up to some dinky aux attachment on long car journeys across the countryside and I remember hours of playing Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja despite kids around me having giant iPads. It’s a shame the iPod’s legacy couldn’t live on today even after I discovered DankPods and found a new appreciation for the iPods that were so foreign to me. Rest in peace iPod, you paved the way for the iPhone and the golden years of Apple.

0:20 True…ish! Apple was “90 days from bankruptcy” according to Jobs himself, and they did receive millions from Microsoft, but while I’m sure it helped that wasn’t what saved them. Michael MJD made a great video about how and why that’s not the case - highly recommend looking it up
