IPod Release Video Thoughts

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kN0SVBCJqLs

The video linked above is the 2001 Apple release of the iPod. What I found interesting was that the iPod wasn't the first portable mp3 player like I had thought growing up. What apple did was not come up with the new idea but make the old idea 10x's-100x's better. They took a large market, anyone who listens to music, and gave them a product with a great design. The iPod was small, could hold all the songs a user would want, an easy interface, and could download songs fast. Even now in 2016 there isn't a new design for listening to music that is 10x's-100x's better than the iPod. I image there won't be until we can download music into our brains and power it with thought.
