Apple is honoring the 25th anniversary of the iPod with a unique celebration.
Specifically, they have hidden an engaging Easter egg within the Apple Music website. If you access the correct URL, you will discover a virtual iPod on the Apple Music platform. This interactive feature includes the iconic scroll-wheel interface that defined the iPod era before touchscreens took over. Users can browse an extensive list of artists and enjoy 90-second snippets of popular tracks from the height of the iPod’s popularity, including hits like Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz’ “Get Low.”

The most exciting aspect is that you don’t need to know the exact URL. Simply type any random characters after the music.apple.com/us/ part of the URL, and the iPod will appear on the 404 error page. This whimsical feature invites users to reflect on Apple’s groundbreaking portable music player, 25 years after its debut.
If you’re not familiar with the pre-touchscreen era, rest assured, navigating menus using a scroll wheel was the norm back then. It was an effective way to browse through music.
