[h=1]The End of An Era: Apple Discontinues the iPod Classic[/h] September 14, 2014 Kishore Ganesh
Apple unveiled the iPod in 2001. Although not the first to the MP3 Player Industry, Apple’s Player prevailed. It had great Design. It was simple to use. it could store a lot of Songs. These factors helped push the iPod to a Cult Status.
Like the Walkman, like the NES, the iPod had become permanently embedded in our mind.
But now, Apple has quietly discontinued the iPod. No, not the entire iPod line, but the iPod Classic.After years of crashing sales due to the onslaught of Smartphones, the Classic is finally being discontinued.
Yes,. the iPod Touch, the Nano and the Shuffle remain. But the Classic was the last to maintain the original iPoad’s form factor and feel. With the Classic gone, it is the end of an era.
