I sort of avoided the whole thing: I liked CDs, how I could own a disc, pop it in my car. I had friends who had already been collecting MP3s on little hard-drive boxes for years. I don't really have clear memories of much from the rest of that year, but there was an iPod, and it came out in October. I had just spent a month or so visiting my family in New York after 9/11. In the fall of 2001, I was living in Los Angeles in an apartment I shared in Sherman Oaks. In 2021, Apple has atomized the iPod and spread its spirit into everything else. But really, iPods are kind of everywhere now. They do, technically: One iPod Touch model remains. Twenty years after the first iPod debuted, it's hard to find whether iPods even exist anymore on Apple's website.
