Apple resurrects classic iPod as a hidden feature on Apple Music

Apple has added a nostalgic surprise to its streaming service: a fully functional replica of the first‑generation iPod appears on the Apple Music 404 error page. Users first reported the easter egg on social media on Friday, noting that the virtual iPod comes preloaded with tracks from the early 2000s, including Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida” and Gorillaz’s “Feel Good Inc.” The hidden player shows up on any nonexistent Apple Music URL, simply by appending a random string of characters after the main web address. A tweet from user Kian (@kianworld) shared a screenshot of the discovery, linking to the surprise. The story was originally reported by The Verge.
