I am not a fan of the DRM in the iPod and iTunes but I love the floodgate that it has opened. I have never owned an iPod but because of the plowing that Apple has done with it, media will never be the same.

Despite the fact that a host of competitors have come and gone, the iPod has outsold all of them--combined. Is it the elegance of design? Is it the ease of use? Is it the flawless integration? Is it the iTunes support, the Nike+ seemless add-on, or the cottage industries that have sprung up to create peripherals? Or is it all these together? The one thing that is certain, the iPod proves that utility is not all that matters--sometimes, in fact, it is what matters least.gileskirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11546229381528820614noreply@blogger.com
