Yes, I know it is available at present on their store. I am asking about its future prospects. Jobs made no mention of it, while claiming that they were updating "all" the iPods. What is the future for a device like this?
- ugh 16y agoThere probably isn’t. They will most likely continue to sell them unchanged but as soon as the iPod touch more or less catches up in terms of capacity (I’m guessing 128 GB) the iPod classic will be dead. (That could happen in one year.) As you said, Jobs said nothing about the classic (even more extreme: he said that shuffle, nano and touch are the entire iPod lineup), that certainly should tell you something. I say good riddance, the iPod touch is terrific, all the classic has going for it is capacity.
