Ten years ago we had Steve Jobs, Johnny Cash, and Bob Hope. Sadly, now we have no Jobs, no Cash, and no Hope.

Oh, I'm not discrediting it for it's essences.

Just don't show off with a thousand tracks, while they're heavily lossy MP3s and definitely not "very high quality".

That's a lie, especially from Apple, who insist on high quality products.

Then talk about the product and don't say that 160kb MP3s are a good thing, that's misleading, even at that time.

I hated that time, I always ripped CDs to WAV, which was HUGE...

I'm thankful for FLAC.

@DamageIncM lets be real thats so petty at this point when this device's existence changed the fucking world.

[DamageIncM]

It holds a thousand songs in what? MP3? The smallest ones right? 160kb isn't "very high quality" Mr. Jobs...

How about you do music justice, especially if Apple is so keen on quality products, and put them on there in WAV, how many of those can you put on the first iPod??

Sure, probably still more, but yeah, don't brag about a thousand songs if it's not actually full quality...

@xboxmodder02 it´s a sarcasm. Isn´t it?

[GAEB4813]

It is very funny to look this video because it´s the same fantastic Steve presentation, but without all of those disgusting today´s Applefanboys screaming when steve say "IPOD"
