I think to a degree the success of the iPod in the music technology market is due to the advertising campaigns that were launched. They made you as a consumer feel that if you didn't have one then you weren't "cool". Kind of makes it sound like high school but still true nonetheless, I feel. I think its become so much more than a fashion statement now. Its almost as if wearing a certain type of iPod determines who you are. When you're walking down the street, if you were to see a person carrying an iPod shuffle, it would make you think what they're listening to... why do they have such a small iPod... do they not want all their music?!?! you know? Then you see another person with a video iPod and you wonder what they put on there and how much music they listen to etc etc... almost like you're judging them based upon their iPods. Its bizarre but we do it, sometimes without realising. Thanks for the comment Michael.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36334968/1806376402925451105/comments/default/8515792834194225303'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36334968/1806376402925451105/comments/default/8515792834194225303'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://chickontheroad.blogspot.com/2007/01/iworld-takeover-by-apple.html?showComment=1168568940000#c8515792834194225303' title=''/><author><name>ChickOnTheRoad</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06324114196714301531</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='02330899323215158402'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://chickontheroad.blogspot.com/2007/01/iworld-takeover-by-apple.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36334968.post-1806376402925451105' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36334968/posts/default/1806376402925451105' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36334968.post-8044222851038415574</id><published>2007-01-12T04:00:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2007-01-12T04:00:00.000+11:00</updated><title type='text'>Hey i own 2 iPods... and i have had technical diff...</title><content type='html'>Hey i own 2 iPods... and i have had technical difficulties with both! but something draws me to buy more stuff for it and to constantly update it! i thinks it cause its more of a fasion statment than anything else... good job over at the marketing section at iPod headquarters!
