iPod accessories have grown from strength to strength. In the early days it was estimated that one accessory was sold for every twenty iPods sold, now that ratio is more like one to one resulting in a market worth a staggering $300 million per year. With this much money at stake it's no surprise that more and more companies are putting an accessory on the market.
So before you go and visit a store to buy a case for your nano, speakers for your video iPod or headphones for your shuffle take a moment to view our reviews of some of the most popular accessories.
Cases remain the most popular iPod accessory on the market, and they are probably the most
sensible way to protect your precious mp3 player from knocks and scratches. The majority
of cases, skins and covers sell for somewhere between $20 and $40, although you could spend
over $170 on one made from imported python, now that really is an iPod skin.
You love your music and why wouldn't you? You have a good ear for a tune, but if you only
ever listen to those tunes on headphones how is anybody going to know what amazing taste
you have? Blast your music out loud into the airwaves with a pair of speakers and
everybody will know exactly what music you've uploaded and be able to judge you accordingly.
There is much more to accessories than cases and speakers. There are headphones that can
turn your mp3 player into a radio and a microphone that transforms it into a dictaphone.
A solar powered charger to keep your battery topped up, cleaning products that remove
scratches and adapters that allow you to play mp3 files on a cassette deck.
