I carried an old iPod nano everywhere for a week, and it changed how I listen to music

There's no doubt that iPods were the devices that defined the early 2000s. As an older member of Gen-Z who was one of the last to rock a sliding phone before smartphones took over, I can confidently say that our MP3 players were our most prized possessions. However, once iPhones took over the world, iPods were immediately the first devices to be cannibalized. When one phone had it all -- and did it better than the rest -- it was redundant to tote around a single-use music machine.
