Last week, Apple quietly dropped the iPod Classic from its online store which marks then end of an era for MP3 players. To some, the Classic was probably their first MP3 player or their first MP3 player they absolutely loved. It wasn't a shiny new iPod though (Apple has probably introduced the 4th or 5th gen iPod Classic during that time) but a Taiwanese-made Clicker Pocki 5-in-1 MP3 player. Heavily influenced by the iPod's signature white color, my Clicker also came in white. It was light years away from what the iPod can offer but it was affordable. I received my first Apple product in 2009 in the form of the iPod nano 4th gen. I fell in love with Apple's design and simple interface that it encouraged me to upgrade to its iPod touch lineup.
