There are so many iPods around the place nowadays, making md players, discmans, walkmans and other portable devices look like a big joke. And with people wearing white colored earphones, it is really easy to see how much money apple's been earning from this device.
That fact aside, the International Trade Commission is investigating claims by Creative that apple is importing stuff that actually infringes copyrights.
I don't really have an iPod, but I think it is really convenient to have one. Maybe one that has volitile memory (as my intro to logic design professor would put it). So when some agents come and suspect that I have pirated stuff on my iPod (ahem, which I of course do not have *hyperventilates*) , I'll just unplug it (and it acts like a very fast delete button) and Voila! But the setback is that i must make sure the battery doesn't run out, or everything will be gone. On second thought, maybe an iPod with a global reset button would be good. (For all you software ppl out there, it is a reformat button)
Back to the topic, I don't have an iPod, and I don't intend to get one because I am broke. But anyway, if embargo is placed on iPods, well, it seems that I won't be able to get one after all.
so folks, go grab one iPod before it's too late!
