iPods for everyone!

Topic: Technology Apple iPod Microsoft

Apple recently reported $320 million in profits for the last quarter, during which they sold 6.2 million iPods. Given a current world population of 6.5 billion, that means that very nearly 1 of every 1000 people in the world bought an iPod last quarter, which is interesting, considering that lots of people have been predicting the iPod's imminent demise due to a) cheaper competition, b) market saturation, and c) lack of compatibility with Microsoft's Media Player.

Just goes to show that people buy on more than just price. And, just maybe, there's been a little disenchantment with Microsoft products.
