iPod Folklore

Stefan Tilkov,

A fascinating Wired article about the birth of the iPod.

“The interesting thing about the iPod, is that since it started, it had 100 percent of Steve Jobs’ time,” […] [T]he iPod is louder than most MP3 players because Jobs is partly deaf, he said. “They drove the sound up so he could hear it.”

Too bad Jobs doesn’t live in Europe.
