Apple doesn't sell mp3 players.

MikeR,

All Apple iPods play MP3, so, yes, Apple sells MP3 players:

My iPods play mp3s. I believe every iPod does.

Sure they do. iPods play mp3. Come on!

The teenagers were consulted at a Piper Jaffray conference...so expect them to bump up AAPL targets yet further..

MikeR, an average dude who buys into the FUD.

guys, MikeR couldn't have been serious. that'd be like saying they don't sell macs, or microsoft doesn't sell windows. (well, if we're talking about vista, i suppose that last one would be true..!)

"attempts to deliberately target this demographic tend to be cack-handed or patronising..."

"cack-handed"? Brits, help us out here...

@grok

Cackhanded = Left-handed i.e. awkward

Apple sells iPods.

Hang on a minute - if their income is £214 a month, and they spend £3,300 a year on consumer goods that leaves them £732 in debt per annum. Who taught these people good housekeeping?

Parents, Twenty Benson, parents. Who didn't teach these spoiled brats housekeeing or accounting, but rather taught them that their parents are a bottomless pit of philanthropy. (Sigh)

Cack handed!

After one too many glasses of Camel's Milk, the result is quite simple (if you have been following my wittysims*) In order to prevent oneself from the embarrasment of dropping a really large fart, those marketing lot have covered their arses with their hand only to find that they have released some cack with the fart hence cack handed!!!!!!

Only happens to people who take themselves far too seriously!

But seriously I go on to add.....Those teenagers have learnt from the many scares printed in & lauded over the various media that listening to so called experts is not always a reliable activity to undertake. This follows:- BSE or Mad Cow Disease (something camel's do not suffer from) Salmonella, Foot & Mouth (not what politicians do these days), Blue tongue (not scoffing from too much blue sherbert), Triple Jab (nothing to do with atheletics), Gulf War (not the gulf between the young & old), WMD (not MDN) and the list goes on.....SO are you surprised that the youth today actually think and analyze what it is they spend their money on?

Do Not Drink & Drive Camel's Milk!!! lest you end up CACK HANDED!!!

Mike R, a great career as an Enderle analyst awaits

@ Twenty Benson

The answer is obvious:

Americans.

My iPod doesn't contain mp3's, only ACC.

@MikeR

While you were trying to be amusing... *sigh*
You could *try* to be accurate, it's AAC

Thanks for reading my little rant.

If 15 year olds are spending £3300 is their parents money.
