which is why iPod has the max market share.....
If you genuinely think SQ is the reason the iPod is dominating the market, then I'm sorry to say you are wrong. Note here that I am not saying that you can't distinguish good SQ from bad SQ, because I believe everyone is entitled to their opinion, I am just going to iterate some reasons as to why the iPod is what it is.
First off, is of course, the ease of use. What with iTunes, a no-brainer interface, and a lack of complicated features the iPods are simple enough to be used by blindfolded monkeys. Most people want nothing but this, a no-nonsense DAP that plays music and maybe some other stuff.
Secondly (as already mentioned) is the DRM factor.
However, most importantly, is the one-man marketing army that is Steve Jobs. The man is as pristine an example you will find of undiluted Genius. He converted what would have been just another DAP into something that attained a cult status. Haven't you ever thought of it? Everything
but the iPod is "just another MP3 player" even though they are the freaking same thing.
And here's some news, a very painfully large percentile of the mango masses care a damn about SQ. They equate SQ to loudness and bass. Start throwing in terms like tonal balance, neutrality, sound signature and
they will just gape at you. How many times have you seen people walking around in public with those white iAmCrapBuds dangling from their ears, and how many times have you seen other people staring at them like the iFollowers are Greek Gods? Something along the lines of a BeyerDynamic would go completely un-noticed, whereas the iBuds, no Sir!
Its just that part of the population that will look at the iBudWearer and gently chuckle , saying "what an idiot!" that care about SQ, and will not buy an iPod, unless something is done about it.
! hv fun !!!
