Miss your old iPod? This site will allow you to bring it back. Sort of.
Twenty years ago, everyone wanted an iPod. It was the device that revolutionized how we consumed music on the go. But when the iPhone came along, it slowly cannibalized the entire iPod line, eventually consigning one must-have device to the pile of obsolete music players.
