Apple Article Response

This is the link to the article:

In this article, the writer describes how Apple products (Itouch,Iphone...etc) have affected teenage lives. It is wildly popular, and widespread around the world.

I think the reason why people, especially teens love Apple so much is because of the music and design. Every teen loves listening to music. With the IPod, we can create playlists of music. Their designs are creative and eye-catching, which attracts mostly all teens. Apple has a huge amount of success with teens and everyone else.
