Growing interest in MP3 players is rising, especially among younger generations, despite Apple's discontinuation of the iPod.
The reasons are, essentially, threefold. First, there's the pleasure of using something tangible: a nostalgia for devices with a single purpose, devoid of notifications and apps. More importantly, though, there's a desire to have a music collection again something led by the music-loving algorithm in your brain, rather than one outsourced to technology. It's their collection, rather than a playlist they've subscribed to, says Laidler, and they own the music and aren't simply leasing it from Spotify.
