After 21 years, Apple will be discontinuing their revolutionary music player, the iPod Touch. When the iPod was first revealed, the music player could hold 1,000 songs. Now, there are over 90 million songs available on Apple’s streaming service.
The iPod Touch was designed by the same team that developed the iPhone. With various streaming services available to iPhone users such as Spotify and Apple Music, the iPod has become obsolete.
The last update was made to the iPod in 2019. There have been different models of the iPod available to consumers like the iPod Nano and the Shuffle. Released in 2007, the iPod Touch will be the last model of the music player to be discontinued. It will be available to purchase while supplies last.
The gadget had “redefined how music is discovered, listened to, and shared”, Greg Joswiak, the senior vice-president of worldwide marketing at Apple said.
Tech analysts said it is inevitable that the iPhone will replace the iPod.
“When Apple created the iPhone it knew that it would ultimately mean the beginning of the end of the iPod,” Ben Wood, chief analyst at technology advisory firm CCS Insight, told the BBC.
