History of the iPod
Apple computers openly announced ‘the iPod’, the portable digital music player, on the 23rd of October, 2001. Prior to the introduction of the iPod, Apple introduced iTunes which performed the task of converting audio CDs into digital audio files in a compressed form, and was also capable of organizing digital music collection. History of the iPod can be traced back to the codename Dulcimer project.
Tony Fadell, General Magic and Philips’ former employee, is accepted as the father of iPod by many. This man becomes a non-detachable part of history of the iPod because he was the one who was committed towards creation of a better MP3 player. Following his passion, in 2001, he went as an independent contractor and started working for Apple Computers. Leading a team of just thirty people, this great man went on to develop the MP3 player of his liking, the iPod.
