iPod – The Best Way to Listen to Music on the Go

Chances are you know at least one person with an iPod. With Apple selling them millions at a time, you would have had to have been living in a hole or on a desert island for the past five years to have not heard about the infamous iPod. Between the infamous silhouette campaign, the huge amount of advertising with famous bands like U2 and the posters placed high above almost every metropolitan area, you almost have to avoid looking around altogether to shield yourself from Apple’s publicity tour de force. As a portable digital music (and now media) player, Apple’s award winning product is available in a huge variety of sizes and memory capacities, offering consumers with enough variation to fit their lifestyles and the size of their wallets.

So you have seen lots and lots of people with iPods walking around on the street. But why the iPod, why did it gain such notoriety in the world when there are other perfectly good portable digital media players? The simple fact is that Apple made a product better than everyone else. As with any product, there are some problems here and there, but Apple has continually been extremely prompt in dealing with any possible problems that have arisen. In comparison to the rest of the portable digital media products on the market today, the iPod has them all beat in nearly any category.

The iPod line offers some of the smallest digital audio players in the business which can not only play audio but show pictures and videos as well. Apple creates a product with a very user friendly atmosphere which can be used not just by Mac users, but by Windows users as well. When it comes to accessories, there are add-ons a plenty, including speakers, docks, car interfaces and nearly anything someone could think of to add to a digital media player. The iPod is currently in its fifth generation with offerings of thirty and sixty gigabyte models, each of which feature color screens and the ability to play videos.
