In 2001, Apple announced the iPod, a device that promised to 'put 1,000 songs in your pocket.' It was not the first MP3 player on the market, but it was the best—good looking, user friendly, and spacious enough to hold an entire music library. What resulted was a mass adoption that would change the way we interact with music forever. Leading innovation for other devices like the iPhone, the iPod is one of the most critically important hardware innovations of the 21st century. According to CNET, 'the iPod was the device that helped transform Apple from a computer company into a consumer electronics company.' While the number of new-in-box, first-gen iPods is unknown, only around 600k were sold in the first year, and the vast majority of them were used immediately.
