Apple sells an easy-to-use, simple, well-designed all-in-one solution.
If other vendors offered a user experience similar to Apple, and the
iPod had 80% market share, you could maybe say it was just a fad. But
the truth is, people buy iPods because Apple offers something you
*can't* get elsewhere.
That you're not interested in what Apple is offering, and don't really
get it, is obvious.
