oct 23, 2001 - The iPod is Launched

Description:

In 2001, Apple introduced its first version of the iPod, a portable music player that allowed users to store "1000 songs in your pocket." and it opened its first retail store in Palo Alto. It was priced at $400 USD. Later versions included models such as the iPod Shuffle, iPod Nano, and iPod Touch. By 2015, Apple had sold 390 million units. It blew other MP3 players out of the game and radically altered the way we listen to music. The iPod also launched Apple's white earbuds as a status symbol.
