A cult piece of tech by Apple turns 22 and begs for your $350: Remember the iPod?

Legally speaking, the iPod can drink, rent a car, gamble, get a pilot’s license, and go to a nightclub – for a year now. Launched in 2001, the most famous MP3 player in the world turned 21 last year.

This year, the iPod turns 22 (what a surprise, right?) and more importantly – can be once again yours.

You just need $350.

A retailer offers it, as 9to5Mac reports – it’s included in Urban Outfitters’ “vintage retro tech” initiative.

If you were on the hunt for a vintage iPod mini, you’re out of luck, since the word is they sold all their stock at $199 apiece. The iPod (4th and 5th generation) is priced at $349.99, but it could very well be done with as we speak, since availability is not endless.

The iPods have also been updated to feature flash storage inside instead of the spinning hard drive that Apple used back in the day. Here’s the product description for the iPod classic being sold by Urban Outfitters:



Despite being discontinued by Apple, the iPod obsession seems to not have withered away – at least not for everybody, as these are selling out quickly.

In 2017, Apple pulled the plug on the iPod Nano and the iPod Shuffle, its last dedicated MP3 players. And while the iPod Touch received updates as recently as 2019, the device had long before stopped being a mere MP3 player.
