iPod

Apple 's iPod is probably the best known MP3 player. The music player, which can play all sorts of audio file formats - MP3, Advanced Audio Coding( AAC), Waveform Audio File(WAV), Audio Interchange File Format( AIFF), and Apple Lossless - has since evolved into iPod video.

With storage capacities ranging from 30 GB to 160 GB, the 2.5- inch color display can play videos in Quarter VGA( QVGA). The TFT display has brilliant color fidelity and good brightness. Apple's iPod video supports Simple Profile of MPEG-4 and the Baseline Profile of H.264/ AVC. With H.264/AVC, the resolution is limited to 320 x 240 pixels, but this is perfectly sufficient for the small 2.5-inch color display. For larger screens, XivD and MPEG-4 can be used, allowing displays in higher resolutions.
