Definition of iPod

We thought we could follow-up last week's question (What does iPod stand for?) with this stumper:

Define iPod

Dictionary.com has this to say:
iPod
noun
(trademark) a pocket-sized device used to play music files

Pretty vague yet almost sounds about right until they throw this in...
IPOD
International Program of Ocean Drilling

Well that's no good! They are just taking us back to the acronym thing again. But, we want to know... What really does iPod mean?

Let it be known, we checked every official source and got majority bullshit response. The best possible definition we got for what iPod means, is from a random website called mariosalexandrou.com this is it...

iPod Definition

An iPod is a palm-sized, electronic device primarily created to play music. Unlike a traditional Walkman or portable CD-player, the iPod is capable of storing a large number of tracks and playing for many, many hours on a single battery charge.

The iPod owes much of its success not in what it does, but in how it does it. Apple, the creator of the iPod, seems to have found the perfect combination of simplicity and functionality. Plus, a clever
marketing campaign and Apple's ongoing efforts to remain relevant, resulted in the iPod striking a chord with the right demographic in a way that no other portable music player has in recent times.

Bravo Mario, you've done it yet again! Check back next week for another iPod mystery question solved.
