What made iPod so popular after all we already have mp3 players in market. The size, capacity, portability and ease to use made iPod so popular. Although Apple's iPod is categorized as music player but in actual sense it does more than a record player. First iPod can play music files both audio and video, it can store music songs in digital format much like as computer stores data in the form of "0" or "1" (binary data). The iPod from apple can play any music format(AIFF, AAC, WAV, MP3) beside mp3 format.
iPod to store hours of music in small device is another reason why it has become popular over record players, which can store maximum 1 hour of music on CD. The speed with which it searches songs from thousands of songs on iPod, easy interface with computer to download music from iTunes and above all features to organize music in categories are few more reasons "why iPod is so popular" among gadget lovers. Apple company has used compression method to store large music files by compressing it on iPod device, this method allows more and more music to be stored on small device. This way consumer has more variety and choice to listen music without changing music records, all in one place. Apple's iPod identifies these compressed files, on iPod device by using "digital audio chip" (DAC) to create digital audio files which are transmitted to head phone (listening device).
iPod storage feature - Apart from technology features iPod comes with sleek hardware design, the iPod is so sleek that it can fit in your shirt's pocket. Again I will give reference of walkman days, why it became so popular. The main reason was its miniature size, one could carry walkman while jogging or at work, the portability, accessibility and ability to run on a battery gave people freedom from wire attached music players.
The current iPod family comes in wide variety of storage sizes. Current iPod storages ranges from 2 GB to 80 GB, the more space the more songs, videos or movies you can store on iPod. The battery in iPod is rechargeable and can last for long time. IF we take stats for average iPod user, you might need battery replacement in one or two years for optimal performance.

Looking Inside an Ipod
iPod represents a wide array of moveable media players which have been designed and are sold by Apple Inc. It was first launched in October 2001. iPod models generally cover digital audio players with a central click wheel to iPod Shuffle that uses various buttons because of its small size. iPod Nano, a fifth generation, was launched in September 2006. This led to discontinuation of iPod mini, which it stored the data on an internal hard disk. iPod Shuffle and Nano employ flash type of memory for smaller size. These devices also act as an external medium for data storage.
iPod was inspired by the shortcomings of existing digital music players, which were not physically compact and the user interface were not very friendly. Apple assembled a group of engineers and within a year, it unveiled the iPod. It was launched as a product which was Macintosh compatible with a hard drive of 5 GB. Apple used PortalPlayer`s reference for its software. The company Pixo helped iPod for developing user interface. But these were refined by Apple after development. The naming of the device as `iPod` was suggested by Vinnie Chieco, who is a freelance copywriter. Coincidently, Apple had the name registered for `internet kiosks`, but it never used it for this purpose.
iPod can run MP3, M4A/AAC, AIFF, Protected AAC, Audible Audio book and WAV format. It also introduced the displaying of images ability with PNG, TIFF, GIF, BMP, and JPEG formats. The 5th generation models can even play MPEG 4. From the 2nd generation model, the software also started working with Windows along with Macs. It doesn`t support Microsoft`s WMA audio format. WMA and MIDI files can be changed using iTunes, a service provided by Apple through which you can view and download latest songs and movies on your device player. iPods having colored displays use texts and graphics which are anti-aliased and sliding animations. The operating system is stored in a dedicated storage medium of the device. Each device player has 32 MB Ram, though later ones have 64 MB Ram. Most of it is used to cache songs through the storage medium.
Apple also added PDA type functionality so that text files can be viewed and an address book can be maintained through a computer. Also, some built-in games like brick are also included. In fifth generation iPod, the brightness of the screen can be adjusted and games can be downloaded from iTunes Store. For first and second generation models, as well as Nano and Shuffle, internal lithium polymer batteries are used and for third and fifth generation models, internal lithium batteries are used. Initially, iPods came with a FireWire connection for charging the device, but with introduction of multipurpose USB ports, they became outdated. Recent iPod models can be charged using USB 2.0.
Many accessories, even by third parties, have been made for iPods. Some additional accessories developed by Apple were sound recorders, FM Radio Tuners, Remote Control and Audio-Visual Cables for TV. Other accessories are external speakers, protective cases, and wireless earphones. Third parties manufacturing most of these accessories are Griffin Technology, Belkin, Bose, and SendStation. BMW was the first car company to launch an iPod automobile interface, thus allowing newer vehicles to control iPod through steering wheels. Later Apple made this technology available to many other car brands too. Even certain Airlines started provided iPod connectors in the seat.
Apple markets its own iPod earphones and claims that they are better fitting for ears and provide better sound quality. Since it was launched, iPod has been market leader in digital players because of their high quality, supreme aesthetics and ease of use. With more cash flowing into research every year, there is no reason for this fact to change.

where to find free music to down load on ipod player about difference artists ?
Do NOT use Limewire unless you want a lot of viruses. Personally, I use Jamendo for music and it's definitely worth a look. I think they have something like 18,000 albums to download for free.
