I love coming back to the iPod. It's great having almost all of my music on one device that only does one thing: playing music.

My listening habits are much better when I listen to downloaded music than when streaming. On streaming services I tend to listen to lots of lists and I end listening to the same songs for long periods of time. On my computer and the iPod I usually listen to full albums, in order. It's a different experience. I listen to the songs as the artist intended when publishing the album.

It's an iPod gen 7 with the the HD replaced by a 128gb microSD. The firmware is the holy rockbox.

So much nostalgia. I think I still have mine around too, in that same case.

Missing rockbox' since both my clips passed 4 years ago. Used them for almost 10 years in workouts. Recently resumed running and bought a fiio M5 hoping I'd be able to rockbox' it, but unfortunately there is no effort on that direction. It's a great sounding device, it's a pity. Ingenic x1000 cpu, it truly shines in AQ
