Apple just screwed the pooch with me on a trade-in issue. They ended up getting it corrected and threw in a set of Air Pod Pros. So one goof up after many years of flawless service. I have never been disappointed before.

You have your preference and I understand but you don't know what you're missing. Apple is the best. And you can understand them when they talk to you.

iPod? They make a lot more than iPods.
