iPod Classic and iPod Video: Solution for limp/non-working click wheel buttons
Most of us listen to music through an app on our phone. We have a nearly unlimited supply of music, along with all sorts of clever features to help us find new music. But these apps are overly complicated, and they exist in a swamp of other apps, all controlled by a touchscreen, the definition of a moving target.
The iPod was the opposite. Offline, finite, completely focused and designed to do one thing very well. And I want one.
There have been several iPod models released over the years, including the iPod Classic. In this article, however, I'll refer to them all as "classic iPods" to distinguish them from later touchscreen models, such as the small clip-on Nano or the still-available iPod touch.
