Original iPod Online Ad

[theJOSHsketches]

Watching this on my iPod touch . This Is AKWARD. So much has changed

[HeyitsAl3c]

RIP Steve Jobs

[rnr090cool]

Im watching this video on my iPhone 4. Wow, what a change. Lol

[lpfader]

Here at apple we have mullets that noone else would dare take on...

[poetsguide]

Ah the Firewire iPod.

[laurealbouy]

apple is genius

[superhypermackid]

@riley96beech back then they didn't have a web browser made by apple

[Riley96beech]

what is really funny. is that this is an apple commercial, but they have internet explorer. lol

[33shreder]

and to think it has come to the Ipod touch 4g, iphone, ipad. the explaining of this stuff hasn't changed much

[MarshMellowChronic]

Has to be up there with some of the best Products ever made

[Adzzz1995]

hehe fail

[hrbrhauntr]

I have 2 iPods a 5G nano and a touch and once upon a time I had a 2G nano, back in 2001 I could only dream of a device like that, back then most people had CD players as a portable device and many also still used cassette players, back then a device like that was considered small in comparison to other devices, also few people have owned these devices, now an iPod is essential to the average teenager or university student, you can get one used for 40 bucks these days.

[Hornstrkier]

All those people in the video are STILL in the newer videos that Apple has on their website.

[hiphoppolice55]

if firewire is 30 times faster than usb, why did they get rid of firewire??

[lukicharms69]

This was 2001! I was one of the first to have it. It stood out in school because no one knew what it was and I felt unique, but not anymore -_-

[Jolt459]

This was really small for the time.

I mean if you think about it the things they had at the time were big CD players.

[VeganJuuice]

"really cool small devices" SMALL??!!?

[guitarman2214]

@VeganJuuice You obviously never had to carry a boombox on your shoulder.

[chesler2]

super thin. lol

[jazzykoenig]

why dont they use firewire anymore?

[joshwhitenack]

@jazzykoenig Because that's fucking stupid.

[tcrangle963]

such an idea!! it has changed how music is played!! pure genius. i love my ipod

[piggiesrocktheworld]

Woah... high tech... I'm blown away. 10 hours of music, all in one place? I can't believe it. And it's 10 times faster than a USB?

[djruinerdotcom]

Never thought it would evolve to the point of the iphone and ipod touch... I have an ipod touch but still have my old 40 gig 2nd gen ipod.. the one after this one in the commercial I think ... heehehe... ipod rules!!!!

apple ftw

[HEYnannerz]

WOW WHAT AWESOME TECHNOLOGY.

this IS LIKE THE FUTURE.

this is 2006? i thought there was better technology back then.

wtf.

[themangodess]

no.

[krugstersaul]

No this ipod is like 2003-2004 just this video was added in 2006

[koasterlover3315]

Try 2001

[franqitoo2008]

Apple's white brick made Moby the first iPod addict

[nadineeeC3]

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!

[robgrauert87]

personally, i think the first and second generation ipods are the best looking. The new ones are still really good though.

[jiaweizheng1990]

back then(2002) was like holy sh!t you have 5GB and what is Ipod.....what 1000 songs in that.....

[tubimas]

haha now i have a NANO 4 gb that plays videos!

[hannah0094]

ha ha i remember when people thought it was SOO COOL to have 4 gb. on a little ipod. now we have 160!!!! HA. man technology moves fast its scary

[samjezard]

Dude the new iPod has more memory than my computer!! I still can't believe that the first gen iPod is still better than half the players out there.

Needless to say, I have a 30gb video :P

[maxibalogh]

Wow, today whe have the iPods that can hold up to 160 GB, but not only for music, but videos, games, movies, podcasts, audibooks etc. And they are so smaller. Who did think this features 6 years ago?

[iMacbookUser]

Wow. This people was only 6 years ago! 5GB HDD! What?

[kronicred]

Moby never made old school techno. His music is mush-pop. Old school techno is Derrick May and the rest of the Belville three.

[elijahruss]

supid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! don't watch :(

[halosux4life]

cool i have one of those

[omglookwhoitis]

since when is 1000 songs ur entire libary??? lol

[rocketmanbrad]

maybe back in 2001.. things were different way back then.. lol

[edstercw]

i heard a marketing seminar guy say this ad wasnt a success cos it was too bulletpoint businesslike(abit Microsofty even), then they thought'its all about music' and the silluette ads were the result

[victr661]

wut kind of ipod is that?

[g3mmersl9]

Awesome ad, Big fan of Smash Mouth, Seal, and Moby.

[iheartfuzzyduds]

i just want to point something out um it wasnt that long ago that this was out (a few year) and the newer ipods are technoligy b4 its time. with the remaster nano and such the techonligy i getting better but b4 they kept pushing this technolgy that ipod was good technolgy

[cardoferreira]

billiejeanforever - those days that iPod was like the nano is nowadays

[Hezett]

i HAD that ipod! i had a 10 gig version, it held 2000 songs. it was big, but 6 years ago no one had one!!

[billiejeanforever]

hehe look at the size of that, and they call it little...

[coondogtheman1234]

I like Moby he's cool

[hannesfred]

nice vid thx mate:D

[nikedmondson]

Lmao Porcelain... the only of his song's that I own. How coincidental.

[IndianDemon]

i wouldn't doubt that these guys are prolly ultra-millionaires at this point

[ohxromance]

Super-thin 5GB hard-drive XD

I love looking at this video, its so creepy to see people think how slim and quick and AMAZING the first iPod was.

My 30GB iPod Video is half the size in thickness, and I find that hilarious XD

[zubo55555]

haha... never thought moby is stupid anough to not be able to understand the mp3-player control...

strange for electronic musician...

[Follower08]

I haven't seen this in AGES

[shadowow1]

We're in a "new" digital world, and yet we can make old YouTube videos sound like it was submerged in jello and have choppy video.

But then again it brings back the good ol' days where frame caps were under 30. :)

[Hilariousity]

fix the headphones!

[ChildOL]

I still have my original 5GB iPod and it still works great!!!

Apple is one of THE BEST Technology innovators in the world, they have some of the smartest people working there. =) Go Apple!

[HyperNathan]

RAWFFLEMOW!

[pasteur110591]

fuck ipods ..

[gohaniscool14]

i agree

[flammingcarrot]

man they were sooo huge back then... i forgot about that... when was this? like 2001-2002?

[hippymaximan]

ipod are great... and I'm pleased I waited a few years till I bought mine for 12 times the size and half the depth =)

[theint]

i was only ten back then...i love technology

[EastEndSnob]

that's a really cool, SMALL, device?

uhh, look at the nano.

Damn, I love how technology evolves.

[drumguy2007]

who the fuck is seal?

[flammingcarrot]

The luckiest dude ever! he's Heidi Klum's husband...

[PINZAOdotCOM]

fuck ipod shit

[Meatpieandtatters]

what enlightened commentary...

[niloc141414]

you are all gay. you argue over a fucking commerical. wow...

[Liarsenic777]

ipod+macbook=genious.

everything just ripped off of ipod. go play with ur zune.

[Larryi5]

"only that apple created"? you copied Creative Zen's interface ya jerk, Remember the Zen Patent apple got sued for in the summer!?

[SanchoE]

moby is a fag.

[tripwir3]

i got ipodddd

[fotomarc01]

Why the fuck do you jerks who love microsuk look at ipod videos on you tube?

[burnsjoe1988]

y is apple so bad, they're better than microsoft who make computers which get slow and annoying after 5 mins, i had my mac for ages and its never gone slow, ipod is a wicked design and jst coz ppl cant afford one they have a go, losers

[delop]

faggots only need a mac, microsoft DOESN'T have bugs, people only say that because they're dumb, they can't even state the bugs. I bet they'd say, "oh u know firefox doesn't work on micrsoft... SOEMTIMES?!"

[akamaru27]

I bet you never used a mac

[burnsjoe1988]

the point is, if something doesnt work SOMETIMES then it has failed as a product, if an aeroplane doesn't work SOMETIMES, then it has failed. microsoft computers are known for not working SOMETIMES, whereas my mac has been perfect ever since i got it, therefore, it is sucessful

[hotmail15]

God I hate apple.

[baltasar890]

lol, old iPod :D

i have nano xD the new 1

[J3me5B0nd]

fuck apple

[akamaru27]

Fuck you

[LutherBlissett]

firewire!?

huh? ...i wish...

[scraigscott]

HELP! HELP! HELP! Is there anyway to save these videos to my personal PC, a DVD disc, or some other external source? Someone please respond to me if you know how. You will be forever appreciated!!!

Scott

[mi1h0use]

If you use Mozilla Firefox you can use an Addon called "DownloadHelper" to download the flv file, and use something like VideoLAN media player to watch it.

[hetlir]

bitcomet

[andrewsgirl666]

i just got an ipod for christmas, a video one, and its a lot better than that one! haha i <3 my ipod!!

[LesFaux]

itunes is terrible, the ipod is just another over hyped mp3 player and it isnt even the best kind.

[blindr]

ipod owns you, without it, the zune, zen and other ripoffs wouldnt exist.

[tsenmaisng]

Creative mp3 players came before the ipod, idiot.

[jayy42]

To all the haters: you will look back and realize this device turned the music scene upside down.

[LesFaux]

hahahahahaha, what a noob.

[chicago85bearz]

really not that great

[toddd]

It's cute to see everyone complaining abut how the iPod breaks easily/is a really crappy device. Where are you using your iPod's? A minefield in Darfur?

[akamaru27]

I agree i've had my iPod for 2 years and it still works like its new

[lctt2006]

iPod you've come a long way baby! Stay cool!

[porcelainchic]

tell us stuff we don't know assholes

[LoungeFlyX]

wow ... it makes me remember how crap the device was! I had one and it broke 1 year and 3 days (i had only used it about 30 times)!

Now i have a Zune and am happy.

[PoisonIvyLeague]

"And a 5gb hard drive!"

[kool4eva]

iTunes.. still looks relatively the same on that iBook ..

Makes u think though, if iPod didnt get lots of product placement, in movies/music videos/celbs.. would it be so popular today? I doubt it

[Sinctydoll]

i cant believe a company as HUGE as apple came out with such a cheap attempt to sell their ipod..im sure they're doing JUST FINE without this.

[loxi3]

well! seeing this "new" ipod...the 5G really new ipod looks even more greater than it is!!! the new one is definitely the greatest!

[maybechildhood]

my ipod is a piece of shit.

[ebruce1]

2 bad its the most breakable product ever introduced to a consumer market.

[lkydangerckwa]

wow they got some really credible artists to endorse it

and it actually did become an icon

[carlmolito]

"IF MOBY LOVES IT, SO SHOULD YOU" ?? moby is the biggest tool ever.

[YuuGin]

philip schiller reminds me of the late crocodile hunter...

[Melyd23]

i want one!!!

[Sephiroth6788]

Well, it has definitely become an icon.

[ilikenintendo2005]

how can this b the NEW ipod all the ipod's i've seen with screen's have better graphic's

[Anark360]

It says "new", meaning it was new, thats why the title of the video is "Original iPod Online Ad".

[MelloTG]

wow.. what an idiot.

[Stuka87]

This add is for the very FIRST iPod... IE: over 5 years ago

[elasticwasteband]

ipods are cool... until they break... and your warantee goes out... then it costs the same price to fix it as it does to get a new one... so suck my balls Apple... and i was gonna buy a ibook.... WAS

[vwvwvwwv]

cool?

[lestube001]

THICK AND CHUNKY LIKE A MARS BAR

[teletub]

Man this is awesome! Where can I get this...iPod?

[lucaboris]

In 1998

[cssniper06]

Actually the 1G iPod was released October 2001, not "1998".

[lucaboris]

oh thanks

[cssniper06]

Your welcome :)

[br052989]

SamDisk Sansa e250 is so much better!

[curdtkobain]

lol the super thin

[mendai1991]

The Zune is much better than the ipod

[lizzard52593]

you're funny.

[hiker64]

You young whippersnappers don't remember walking around with a walkman cassette or even the first FM walkman style radio. Even the first MP3 players from Creative were huge and required 4 - AA batteries.

[LittleGreen88]

Ahh! I remember that the first mp3 players were far larger than the walkmans.

[BoWorld]

MAn that is old

[girly707]

Apple = gay.

[lizzard52593]

o rly?

[UndergroundHustler]

Everybody complains about iPods... is there any better player?

[sissyboi]

It'll never catch on

[Pyrospastic]

Hahaha

[fotomarc01]

The fact is Apple started a revolution with the iPod and the masses now own one and everybody is trying to copy their idea.

Just like the original Mac OS...

Go suk microsoft!

[AnimeStop]

That is so true...

[tsenmaisng]

wait, don't you mean that Apple stole/copied almost everything Xerox developed, especially the graphical interface?

[br0kebusta]

That's the ugliest thing I've ever seen, the new Ipods are so much better. Even if they still suck =)

[GeneralBeef]

This is incredibly old.

[lucaboris]

Games for Vista, Oh shit bye bye Apple

[danmotut]

FUC MOBY little bitch

[jeffersonday]

oh you hate moby because you like M&M - real original. Why don't you hate someone that actually is screwing up this world? you might not like Moby's music because it's not simple enough for you, but you have to respect him.

[pickle111]

agreed

[danmotut]

i was listening to moby back when 'go' was big. then he turned his back on those that made him (the undergnd dance scene) and sold out to mtv. now his music is stale, narrow, uncreative and weak. just like oakenfold...and where is he now? remixing britney murphy. brutal.

[jeffersonday]

ouch! must admit that i liked moby's old school techno more too. Too bad Moby is looking more for popularity than creativity lately

[LoFiLime]

Why are we watching this now? That's gotta be more than five years old.

[dblue22]

Fuck Zen, iPod ftw

[vicholicho]

moby is such a fag...he paid apple to part of this shitty commercial...

[smexiness]

when i had my first ipod.. i was.. wow.. amazed..

then i figured out it wasnt a jew in a box so i just threw it away.

damn gypsies..

[aguacates]

Goddammit, Moby was such a fag. I'm glad he's gone

[jeebs1984]

Too bad the hard drives suck out after a year.

[jokester72]

ipods are so much better than zunes i bought a zune and it fried in a week, then i bought another one it did the same

[francisco1563]

Im like seal said when i had a iPod WOW, amazing.

[tsenmaisng]

"the total solution: ipod, itunes. Everything works together seamlessly because we make the hardware and software. Only Apple can do that."

AHEM. bullshit

(see next comment

[doctorjay1976]

seal looks like a seal...ahahah

[nikanj]

Hahaha that "seal" is married to Heidi Klum... Are you?

[doctorjay1976]

nope

[kungming2]

Wow... Even the Zune today can't match the beauty and easy user-interface of the first iPod.

[aznfoo89]

apple can do anything zune can do exept that zune transfers music that lasts for only 3 days... then gets deleted for copyright purposes

[sharkbait323]

lol this was the ipod where the wheel actually turned, it wasn't touch sensitive

[aussieNickuss]

How fat is the original ipod!

[olerris]

zune is better, but apple had a thresh hold that the zune will not catch up for years.

[lookalive28]

zune will never ever catch up sorry.

[cssniper06]

How is the Zune better?

[neooneear]

Zunes are for L O S E R S ! !

[iSemper]

I would prefer to use this iPod that a Zune

[snackhappypappy]

Ipod Sucks, Zunes are better.

Apple can suc my balls!

[iSemper]

I actually laughed out loud at that comment.. Zunes are so fucked up !

[chitownruler23]

lol if i want a brick ill go buy the very first cell phone

[iomega]

it still kicks ass.

[H0ss20]

"super thin 5gb hard drive !!!" haha

[Poofyponcho]

is that bad

[danthekilla]

man ipods are so shit

[BYC]

Isn't it amazing how much EVERYTHING about the iPod has improved so much in only like 4 years?

its insane

i just got back from the apple store and the fuckers got p
