For all my disappointment with apple over recent years, the iPod classic will stand as probably my favourite apple device. Simple and direct music listening, with plenty of space. Was a real shame it was discontinued. I was lucky enough to find one someone had thrown out in great condition recently and it was so refreshing to go back to a much more basic device where I could really just be with my music and my entire music catalogue at that. On that note, iTunes will stand for me as the greatest music organiser ever. Other programs don't come close and trying to get your muddled up library on to an Android device is so difficult. I'm glad I still have my iPod to rely on.

I miss the day you could just press a button to get to the next song without having to get a huge phone, unlock, open a app and touch the screen. I mean, even the music app in the new iPod is gargabe because is basically the Apple Music app with ads asking you for subscriptions.

I bought my classic in 07. I still have it till this day but it can barely last more than an hour but god this thing got me through some tough times. I moved to another state on my own, went from living in my parents house to living in a studio apartment in a new town with no family or friends. My ipod and my ps2 (no tv for 6 months) were the only things I owned. Now I have house, kids, married and several devices that play music...still the classic will always hold a special place in my memory.

I'm still listening to my 60GB 5th gen iPod nearly 20 years later. I've had MBP and other Apple hardware, but nothing compares to the 5th gen iPod. It is one of the absolute best hardware interfaces that Apple has ever produced. I'm terrified to plug it into a computer, but I had it maxed out on songs, so it will forever house that music and the many playlists from all my house parties. I have no idea why, but I used dates in my party playlist names, so I still know the exact parties and people I was around for each, and some of those friends are no longer here (RIP), which makes those memories a bit extra special.

Offbrand Justin Y. Because streaming music doesn’t sound as good, and not to mention you have to always have an internet connection to listen to anything, while draining your phone battery and also having interruptions from text messages/ in coming calls/ notifications and what not, just because something is new doesn’t mean it’s better. The chips they used in these older iPods sound better than any iPod touch or any iPhone, these are facts, and that’s why these older iPods are sought after. And using these older iPods are not really any less convenient then streaming on your phone.

These things are the best and they're pretty easy to flashmod so you can replace that hard drive with much bigger and much more reliable microSD cards. I've got 500gb in my old 6th gen and I don't have to worry about the hard drive failing every time I accedentially drop or bump it. Soooo good.

Love the classic the only ipod I owned. I just revived it today after YEARS because it always gave me that message of "please wait battery is low" and it was stuck there for years smh but today finally its back and it feels good.

I remember my friend going to his local Apple Store and buying one the first day it was available. Unlike the iPhone release almost six years later, there were no lines. Once he demoed it for me, I was sold, and I went and got mine the next weekend. I’ve been an iPod (and now iPhone) addict ever since.

I got myself the 5th gen iPod Classic as a Christmas present to myself from myself December 2023. I had looked at iPod Classics on Ebay and couldn’t quite make up my mind on what model I wanted and I looked at prices so I held off for awhile. It wasn’t until I stumbled upon a black iPod classic 5th gen on Ebay and picked it. The iPod’s back says 30 gb but was not only upgraded to 128 gb but has a new battery in it so I got the iPod. It came on December 23rd, two days before Christmas thus making it perfect timing. I decorated my iPod with a bright pink skin and got four clear cases decorated in puffy Pusheen Cat stickers thus dubbing my iPod as the Pusheenpod.

Still rockin’ my Classic 160GB 7th gen. Awesome machine.

I appreciate the efforts, you put into these videos!

You for got the 7th generation iPod. I've had 5 Classics and love them. I just ordered a new one thru eBay; it was brand new. I have a huge iTunes library with music but more important over 1500 podcasts which drop automatically. I had to call Apple as to how to get it to sync but the gal with whom I spoke took her time and all worked. We forgot to sync the music but I was able to figure that out. Plus the podcasts would not stop, i.e., another episode followed. Did research and found the answer from a teckie. There are people like me who think the Classic is the way to go. Plus the sound is outstanding.

I adored my iPod Classic. It's what got me into Apple products. Today, in 2018, I have an iPhone X with Apple Music. Still a fantastic experience.

Still enjoying my whole playlist on my iPod 4 touch 8 year of age! Battery lasts about a week on airplane mode

I bought a iPod Classic 2009 version (the very last one) a couple years ago and I’ve been using it almost every day since. My only complaint is that audio clips if the bass is too low. And I’ve had to replace the headphone piece twice already. Still a great machine. I appreciate the 180g capacity, it makes me feel like a king!

Honestly, I cannot recommend more flash modding a 4th or 5th (or 5.5 for that matter) gen, and filling it with music - you get better sound quality, and no distractions from phone calls or texts. There’s also a peculiar charm to the simplicity of that technology.

Me personally, I think if they made another updated iPod classic that's wi-fi compatible and made a component for e-books it would resurrect big time

I remember having an iPod at one point. It was enjoyable to be able to put on a set of headphones and listen to music on my lunch break. I dont remember which specific model since it has been a while since I used it but it was enjoyable to have. Now I have my iPhone to listen to music, audiobooks, and movies.

I have my last generation iPod Classic for almost 10 yrs now. It still works gloriously. It's been in a rubber iPod case and I only dropped it 2X, from pocket to floor. It's only coming up on 2/3 full. Nothing on the market after it was discontinued I think in 2015. A shame Apple did that. I have a 5th gen Nano too. The classic has richer sound than the flash based Nano and all smartphones. I love that lil iPod Classic so much I bought a back up, refurbished one. I also have a Bose docking speaker in the house and an 11 speaker Bose system in my car. Nothing beats the sound, no commercials or subscription fees for lesser sound.

A touch screen device with physical volume and playback buttons that packs a premium headphone amp, 500gb memory, wireless and streaming capabilities as well as digital radio. It would only be a niche device though since an iPhone is a pretty great music player for the majority of people.

but not for us audiophiles

Well done nice job on this video thanks

It's a really good device. I use it more at home now, but it used to be my car music thingy, for about a decade. The only reason it isn't now, is that I drive for work and the phone works better for music, phone calls, navigation, etc all in one device.

I hate Apple, but god damn I loved the iPod Classic. I'm going to mod it with an M Sata SSD soon. With Rockbox, it's simply the best MP3 player ever made.

Haha yes. I still have a 160 GB one.

Some of these special edition iPods are so ridiculous! HP, Harry Potter, what else? Haha.

I wouldn't be without my 6th gen 160gb Classic. Sheer class 👌

Just recently bought one actually, 6th gen 80GB w/new battery. What led me to buy one is I noticed when I listen to music on my phone or laptop, I tend to get distracted with notifications or say "Oh I'll just real quick check my email" and it leads to a rabbit hole of checking social media, etc. most of the time. It's nice to have a dedicated music player again, one where you can just sit back, close your eyes and get lost in the music without any distractions. I think if Apple reintroduced the Classic with larger storage, an SSD or Flash memory, bluetooth support for wireless headphones/speakers and add streaming service support for Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, etc. I think it could potentially be a viable product in this day and age, I'd surely buy one.

i loved the ipod classic, i had the 6.5 gen 120 gb and wow i missed it so much when it died

I have the 6th gen 160 and still exclusively use it for music. It has the distinct advantage that is you don't have to be looking at it to use it. I ride motorcycles and can manipulate the controls with out looking at the device, while it's in my pocket, which you can't do with a iPod touch. Long live the classic iPod!

iPod Classic as a new following with people modding them. Someone on Reddit was able to make a iPod classic bluetooth which is crazy!

Great job keep it going you are comimg up to 100k!

You forgot about the 20GB and 40GB models of the 3rd gen iPod.

My very 1st iPod was the 4th gen non colored 20gb i got wayback 2005.... then shifted to iPod Photo U2 edition 4th gen tgat was already a colored screen... after that i got the iPod classic 80gb... when the very 1st iPhone 2G came out in 2007 i sold my very last iPod classic..... after long years having no iPod anymore, i bought again an iPod classic 160gb in 2019 coz i want to have a gadget that is only for playing music...since most people today use also their mobile for music....

Apple, PLEASE bring back the iPod Classic with updated chipset, updated power outlet & longer lasting battery !!!

Gosh I miss my iPod classic It was the best ever

I still use my iPod classic sometimes. I mostly use it for the old nostalgic music I have on it when I am having a nostalgic mood.

I use mine for my trips to and from work. My newly bought iPod touch is used on weekends most of the time.

Wow your video-doc is like a time traveling portal ❤👏👏👏

The Ipod Classic is the true tech icon of the century. The final design on its final release on 2007 was way ahead of its time that us humans couldn’t handle. If only apple would release this icon again in 2022 with Spotify + Wireless Charging & bluetooth + 3mm headphone jack slot + USB type C charging + 160gb memory + no touch screen + pure mechanical buttons and it would definitely sell out like hot coco on a Christmas morning ✨

Hey Craig or Greg. I just want to make a correction. There was a 7th generation ipod classic that has 160gb of storage. It was my first and last ipod and and the hard drive in it failed and so i gave it away to someone who knew how to repair it. I miss it sometimes. I put all my 3000 songs in it including music videos.

The Classic came in black, too. I bought a black 160GB unit in Feb ‘08

I always liked all iPods. I hope (but dont think) they will renew at least 1 product of the iPod line.

The first iPod I bought was a 3G (Red LEDS) with 15GB on tap. That one went to my old "significant other," since iPod Mini of the time had a sketchy reputation. I stumbled along with 4-16GB MP3 players from Sansa and Philips, until I found a 4G iPod (20GB) on eBay. I finally had a reason to use iTunes on the AlBook, ripping my CDs at 192KB/sec. My current unit is an iPod Touch (32GB), which does a bit more than the iPod Classic.

looking at getting one of these with a homepod dock to relive when i was little

i remember my friend bough her iPod in 2004 with 20 GB of storage during my high school year, everyone was amazed with her iPod because most MP3 player at that time only have 128 MB - 512 MB capacity, my MP3 player at that time only have 256 MB and i can store 15-20 songs on it.

I had all but the first one. Still have them.

I just purchased a new-in-box silver iPod Classic off Amazon for $449. Perhaps the most expensive iPod product I've ever owned (aside from the iPod touch models I've owned which were pretty close to that price.) Granted I stream my music through Apple Music but I still have a backlog of over 3,000 songs from iTunes Store purchases over the last fifteen years. I may have Apple Music but for some artists, I want their entire album, sometimes even the actual physical CD itself (which involves hooking up another ancient piece of technology, an external CD drive). This iPod makes perfect sense then. I love my iPhone, I love my iPad, but I really loved the iPod line.

History of the Apple remote/IR receiver on some macs please!

9:41 didnt expect to see this album omg i love the killers

Some of you may or may not know this but the older generations of iPods have a wolfson DAC which sounds really good if paired with some nice headphones, I personally like using my 1970’s pioneer headphones, it sounds sweet

Love my 160GB classic - I have my entire music collection at my finger tips in my car - I have it set to random so it's like having your own personal radio station but minus the inane diatribe of today's commercial radio stations rabbiting on indefinitely 🙂. ...long live the Classic !

btw Theres a Ipod Classic 7th Gen aka (6th classic (2nd revision).. that brought back the 160 gig model in 2009, I happen to still have it
