Apple iPod Classic and iPod Nano Sales Surge as Interest in Distraction-Free Music Players Returns
Interest in discontinued Apple iPod Classic and iPod Nano surged, with Google Trends and Axios reporting renewed popularity despite Apple ending production in 2022.
eBay data shows iPod Classic searches rose 25% and iPod Nano searches increased 20% from January–October 2025 compared with the same period in 2024.
Computer science professor Cal Newport attributes the trend to iPods being single‑purpose devices, helping users avoid distractions inherent to smartphones and social media ecosystems.
