The iPod is one of the most popular music playing devices of all time. The first iPod model was launched on October 23rd, 2001 as a first class potable media player. The five-gigabyte hard drive allowed people to listen to 1,000 songs from their pocket. The presence of this device brought must-have higher technology into to world of music again. The success of Apple products skyrocketed and there are now 16 different kinds of iPods. Many people would probably use Apple as an American icon and it is one of the most popular household brand names. Eleven percent of Americans own their own iPods, use them daily, explore and share music through them, and are comforted by their portable media playing devise.
Apple is currently advertising that with your iPod, “you can take anything anywhere.” It is miraculous that so much media can fit into such a small devise, but having so much on one electronic makes it easier for people to use, care for, and rely on. Apple also promotes its items as “the perfect gift for anyone.” I couldn’t agree more. As previously stated, there are several kinds of iPods to fit the lifestyle of, essentially, anyone. The technological advancement of this product makes it better for the majority more and more every day. iPods are linked to iTunes, which helps artists make money from their work, and encourages people not to download illegally. The quality of iTunes songs and movies are top notch, and there are very often promotional deals and free songs to help spread music of otherwise unrecognized artists who deserve a listen.
Music is a huge part of my life, and I would go as far as to say that I couldn’t live without it. My iPod is one of my most important tangible items, and I love that it really has almost everything on it. I am still a fan of the classic CD, but with an iPod you have so much variety. It is far more convenient to carry one item with 32 gigabytes of video, music, and pictures than bring a CD case, portable DVD player, and camera or developed film. As exaggerated as that sounds, all of those important things can fit into the palm of my hand with my iPod. I use my iPod with my computer, I keep information on it, store days worth of songs, practice with it, run with it, and feel serenity and excitement from it. It is so important to bring music with you wherever you go in life, and iPods make that possible.
Producers, like Steve Jobs, know that their product is a hit. It works, is well advertised, trendy, and well liked by many. A large percentage of Americans find owning an iPod absolutely necessary and a part of everyday life. The fact that iPods are so highly valued and desired makes them an extremely successful product and safe investment. Art is being shared in such a positive way through these electronics and many products and ideas can influence owners and future owners of iPods and other Apple products. The company is healthy and in constant motion, and those are two things that our culture always wants to be.
