Over 20 years after Apple’s iPod first revolutionized how people can listen to music, the company announced Tuesday that it is discontinuing the MP3 player.
“Music has always been part of our core at Apple, and bringing it to hundreds of millions of users in the way iPod did impacted more than just the music industry — it also redefined how music is discovered, listened to, and shared,” Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, said in a news release.
