Ben Wood , chief analyst at CCS Insight, told The Bbc it was always inevitable that the iPhone would One Day replace the iPod.

" When Apple created the iPhone it knew that it would ultimately mean The Beginning of The End of the iPod, " He Said .

" It really is astonishing that it is only 15 years later that the iPod has reached The End of The Road . "

Carolina Milanesi from Creative Strategies said that The Decline of iPod Sales was connected to The Rise of iPhone Sales - Like The Move from digital downloads to streaming.

" The demise of the iPod is probably The Best example of Apple not being concerned about cannibalising its own products, " She Said .

The iPod wasn't The First MP3 player on The Market , just Like the iPhone wasn't The First Smartphone - But that unique Apple design proved to be The Push digital music needed to start to tempt people away from CD and cassette Players - and file-sharing.

In 2001 the Music Industry was fighting for survival against illegal file-sharing as tunes were ripped and shared on platforms faster than the record labels could issue legal threats.

The Launch of iTunes, and the iPod shortly afterwards, provided it with a lifeline in the form of revenue for legitimately purchased downloads.

It also revived The Fortunes of Apple, which was languishing in a market dominated by Windows PCs.

It was introduced On Stage by the late Steve Jobs at an event on 23 October 2001.

" With iPod, listening to music will never be the same again, " He Said . And in many ways, he was right.
