There was also an interesting development by Apple when the company tried to make changes in iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle in terms of design and colors to grab user’s attention back in 2015 but that didn’t make any significant improvement in the product.

It’s not merely Apple’s failure to cope with the existing market; it is actually the effect of rapidly changing technology, the Apple iPod shuffle was first launched in 2005, which was, in fact, one of the first and the best mp3 players with flash storage in the market, Apple launched iPod Nano in the later year which was quite successful at the time.

Mostly, the mobile phones are now able to play a role of mp3 players, consumers now have hands on enough storage that they can stuff the phones with music and video libraries along with dozens of apps and images on it.
