Whether or not it was successful initially isn't a matter of opinion, it's matter of fact. Compared to other personal music players on the market, the number of ipods was not high for the first several generations.
I don't believe this at all as they were insanely popular when they came out.
How very truthiness of you. Are you a Republican? Go to this linked webpage and search for "Sales of iPod by Year" and you'll see that the first couple of years of ipod sales are relatively very small

Wow I had no idea (or didn't remember) those even existed. I thought it came out around 2005 when the nano was released.
Yeah that's it exactly. When it finally exploded, it EXPLODED, but for the first few years it had relatively very low sales. But Apple stuck with it and kept fixing the major flaws that it initially shipped with, and once enough flaws were fixed it went gangbusters seemingly overnight.
Same with the apple headset. It has some major flaws, as people have rightly pointed out, and as a result it's not gonna be a huge seller at first. But Apple will likely stick with it and keep improving the flaws and eventually it might be another iPod level success. Or it might be another failure like the touchbar era laptops. Time will tell.
