Ситуация на рынке цифровых плееров уже несколько лет довольно нестабильна, прежде всего, потому что рынок - достаточно насыщен и пользователи не спешат приобретать новые устройства,
Согласно прогнозам специалистов, такая тенденция сохраниться и в будущем. Аналитик компании Needham Research Чарли Вульф считает, что в 2017 году будет продано 95 миллионов iPod. А это — на 10% больше, чем сейчас есть в обращении. Более того, компания понизила свои собственные прогнозы - ранее она называла цифру продаж на 30% больше, чем сейчас.
Главной причиной столь неутешительной тенденции эксперты Needham называют изменение предпочтений пользователей, которые променяют iPhone на iPod, соответственно, это приведет к снижению продаж. Это также обусловлено снижением стоимости нового iPhone 3G до $199.
Также Чарли Вульф считает, что в этом году в США будет продано около 8,5 млн iPhone, в следующем году - 14 миллионов.
