Why iPods are back
A device that only plays music turns out to be the point.
Fewer distractions
No feeds, notifications or autoplay. People are choosing single-purpose devices to listen more intentionally, part of a wider move toward dumbphones, CDs and film cameras. TechRepublic
Demand is up
eBay searches for the iPod Classic rose 25% and the nano 20% from January to October 2025 versus the same months in 2024, per eBay data shared with Axios. Axios
Two kinds of buyers
People buying back the one they grew up with, and a younger crowd getting their first one. Apple stopped making iPods in 2022, so every one out there is secondhand. Hindustan Times
