Apple has discontinued the iPod music player after more than 20 years on the market.
The most recent version of the device – the iPod Touch – has not been updated since 2019 and many of its features are now incorporated into other Apple devices and services. Apple said it would continue to sell the Touch, the last remaining generation of the iPod on sale, “while supplies last”.
When it was introduced by late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in 2001, the iPod was the first MP3 player capable of storing 1,000 songs and came with 10-hour battery life. The tech giant went on to produce multiple versions of the device.
