It's kind of hilarious that there is now a 36 minute video that essentially explains how everyone used iPods in 2003 as some difficult alternative
What's funny is iPods were the difficult alternative back then. You could only use iTunes and their proprietary files to put music on the thing. You had to do some hack to get around that. It had very limited space even for the time. They were expensive. Meanwhile me with my cheap mp3 player had gigs of music I just drag and dropped from the file manager. I feel bad for anybody that only knows Spotify as a way to get music. They don't know what they're missing.
I had an application called floola that I just dragged and dropped onto the iPod. There was a Mac Windows and Linux version so regardless of what you plugged the iPod into you could load music on. I didn't even have a Mac I just had an iPod
