The death of the iPod, one of the worst predictions in the history of technology

Loose lips sink ships, the saying goes. Throughout Apple's history we have seen prophecies that have since run into the ground. It is the example of those who predicted a $ 500 iPhone would never succeed in the market. Big mistake, as has been demonstrated over the years, since the iPhone has become the indisputable leader of mobile technology in this decade.

But in the past there have been other cases of legs gets no esperanzabas Apple gave one of his new projects. This is the case of Alan Sugar, founder of Amstrad, a British company dedicated to electronics. Sugar was convinced that the iPod would never succeed and not end up taking off. In fact, in 2005 predicted the immediate death of the music player from Apple.

Another big mistake, because the iPod also revolutionized the mp3 player market in its day. These statements were rated as one of the worst predictions of the technology industry.
