My iPod is the embodiment of my soul. It has everything from the Beach Boys, to Miley Cyrus, to Owl City, to Bon Jovi, and more. I cannot imagine living without my iPod.
Music has definitely progressed throughout the centuries. It has been transformed, compacted, and remixed. Styles are changing everyday, and the iPod just makes it a bit easier to keep up with the new trends in the music world. This little machine makes entertainment so much more convenient. With just the click of a button, I can jam out to my favorite tunes.
Not only has music trasformed over the years, but the iPod itself has also become different. The first iPod ever only held about two, maybe three hundred songs, and that was it. Then, as the years went by, music videos became part of the equation, as did podcasts, cameras, and photos. There's the iTouch and the iPhone, too. It seems as if people have become increasingly needy. In the old days, all you needed was a job, some food, and shelter. But now, everyone has to have the latest trends and styles. TV's, radios, cars, mansions. Whatever happened to the simple necessities?
The iPod has definitely changed my way of life. I remember carrying around my CD player with my handy-dandy CD's on the side. I loved that CD player, but I also hated it with a burning passion because I had to be a statue while using it. I could not move it or else the CD would skip and interrupt my jam session. With the iPod, I don't have to worry about that anymore. I can go jogging and listen to music at the same time without having to deal with annoying interruptions. In fact, I think I excercise more now that I can listen to music. It makes it so much easier to push through the lactic acid building up in my legs.
