Apple has confirmed plans to discontinue the iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle.
In a statement, Apple representatives said: “Today, we are simplifying our iPod line-up with two models of iPod touch now with double the capacity starting at just $199 and we are discontinuing the iPod shuffle and iPod nano.”
This comes three years after the discontinuing of the iPod Classic in 2014, leaving the iPod touch the only product left with the ‘iPod” name.
The original iPod launched in 2001, advertising itself as a way to carry 1,000 sings in your pocket. The Shuffle and Nano both followed a few years later in 2005 and remained on the market for over ten years.
Since the original product launched in 2001, Apple has sold more than 400 million iPods, whereas iPhone sales hit one billion in July 2016.
But even the love people have for the original iPod products couldn’t contend with the rise in streaming services – where you can have all your music on your phone and there’s no need to download MP3s.
