Link Heavy. When iPods Die, the Killers, Mars and More
Link Heavy. When iPods Die, Design, Mars and More: At Dork we love science - especially when it collides with art. For today's link heavy we found a few interesting articles ranging from iPod Death to more evidence of water on Mars. We even stepped outside the "science-meets-art" realm and threw in a link regarding the Killers' latest Christmas tune.
But before jumping into the links, we'd like to highlight Nick Wingfield's piece, When iPods Die. It's a well written article that presents both sides of the debate - should apple iPods last longer? For example, while he makes the point that many consumers feel iPods aren't lasting long enough, he also writes: "Even if only a tiny percentage of iPods malfunction, the huge popularity of the devices means a significant number of users could be affected. Apple has sold nearly 70 million iPods in the five years since the product first went on sale. If just under 5% of that number failed, that could still amount to millions of affected devices."
