iPod Classic in 2025 & Beyond – Don’t Throw It Away Just Yet

In 2025, this 20-year-old music player is more relevant than ever — and in this video, I’ll try to show you why.

I’ve been using my iPod through power outages, long walks, street photography sessions, etc. — all without notifications, subscriptions, or distractions. Thanks to the amazing community around these devices and some clever mods (think SSD storage, USB-C, Bluetooth, and a 55+ hour battery), the iPod Classic has become my ultimate offline music device.

Whether you’re tired of streaming services or just love the idea of fully owning your music again, this video is for you. Check it out!

Big thanks to the iPod modding community on Reddit and channels like DankPods for keeping the Classic alive and evolving.

Big love and appreciation to mobygratis!

I also highly suggest to do your own research before you attempt to mod or even buy the iPod for modding. Search the web, YouTube or Reddit for more specific iPod models or modding scenarios.
