Thats a little revisionist isn’t it? iPods and all music players started dying in popularity after the iPhone.
replySteve Jobs himself said “Dropbox is a feature not a product”. Dropbox is the same cost for 5TB of storage as GSuite + 5TB of storage or Office365 with 1TB each for 5 (6?) users.
Fatalist sure, but not revisionist. Commodification is a natural process for everything that isn't unique, iPods, EVs and Dropbox alike.
replyThe iPod was never “commoditized”. It didn’t o market share to other cheaper “good enough” music players. It was “obsoleted” as technology moved forward.
replySaying the iPod was commoditized is like saying 8 track tape players were commoditized.
