Apparently the speculation is that to facilitate this the Watch will
increase to 8 GB and beyond. Someone posted a link to this discussion
earlier on the thread.

At this point you can only store up to two gigs of music on an Apple Watch
that's not a whole lot.

That's interesting. It would absolutely never occur to me to use my Apple
Watch as a music player. I mean, obviously it has the music app, but as I
understand it, all music would be played via connecting to the cloud, or
another device like an iPhone. Why bother with that when you could just store
your music directly on the player? I'm thinking about things like long car
trips here, where you might not have WIFI, and you could burn through a lot of
data if you used your data connection. I think I'll stick with my plan to keep
an old phone as an iPod. :)

You may be wise. Tthe discussions I have seen is that Apple want to shift
people away from using iPod to using an Apple Watch. I have no definite
knowledge as to whether this is true but there seems speculation that iPod
development has ceased in favour of this longer term switch.
I went to the Apple Store in the UK and there is no mention of the iPod apart from its
presence in a list of products described as being in the page "footer area".
The iPod is certainly not in the headlining products for the Store now so it
seems it has at least shifted in priorities for marketing.

I have an iPod 5th gen and was thinking of buying an iPod 6th gen. I had been
looking at Amazon but hadn’t;t bought anything yet. After reading this thread,
I looked at Amazon and the only units they had were from marketplace orders.
They did not seem to have any in stock to sell directly like they did a few
weeks ago. I don’t know what this means, but I’m not buying another iPod right
now. I refuse to buy something that is going to be out of date in a year or
two.

Yeah, but you're assuming he doesn't know what he's talking about. That is
certainly a possibility, I'd be about the last one to put my faith in what I
hear at BestBuy, but sometimes they do know what they're talking about. Just
saying. We're all assuming he's wrong, when in actuality no one on this list
has concrete proof that he is.

Subject: Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod?
Chris,
Had you paid attention, you would have noticed that my subject line contained a
question mark. One reason I brought the issue to the attention of the list is
because I figured someone here would have better information than the guy from
BestBuy. Last I heard, asking questions was allowed on this list. So hold
your criticism.

Guys, it can’t be true, I looked at iDownloadblog and there is no articles
suggesting the iPod is going. Nobody’s fault, but whoever is spreading rumours,
on or off list, should give us some credible sources. It’s allright saying a
guy from Best Buy has said this and that, but anybody from anywhere can make
things up like that. Again, not blaming anyone here, just offering some
constructive criticism to the list overall.

Hi guys! Really? I can't believe that apple is goign to discontinued the iPod
touch. That really sucks since I actually bought an iPod touch 6 generation on
December of last year! I think the best thing is to call apple itself and ask
these question or email apple accessibility and so on. What do you guys think?
I look forward in hearing from you soon. Thanks and God bless!

Interesting. I don’t see why they would. That was really one of their bread and

very unhappy because I just bought a Touch three weeks ago.

Hi all,
I just left Best Buy, and the sales person there told me that Apple has
completely discontinued the iPod and that Best Buy is shipping all of its iPod
stock back to Apple. I have no idea if this is true, but if you're in the
market, prices on the latest Jen iPod are great right now!
Cheers,
Donna
