I used an original iPod Nano in 2026, and it worked surprisingly well (www.spacebar.news)

"better" is definitely subjective. I use an iPod touch that I leave plugged in my car that I have 17k songs on. It's so nice to just have something that always resumes where I left off and just works. No subscriptions, no data. I can go on long road trips and not worry about spotty coverage. And best of all, I actually own all the media that's on it. And my phone texts don't keep interrupting my music all the tiime

    I installed in my(old but very good) car a surprisingly nice sounding stereo unit, very inexpensive, like 30€.

    The unit has no cassette or CD. It does have a micro Sd slot, two USB, one is charge only, for phones, and the other for storage. It has a remote. Physical buttons and a multi modal knob.

    My phone has 512Gb of storage, and I almost never use streaming services.

    I imagine your phone notifies you of texts, anyway, no?
