“As Apple is rumored to discontinue its aging hard-drive-based iPod classic, the company has removed a section from the iTunes Store devoted to click-wheel games,” Neil Hughes reports for AppleInsider.
“Users used to be able to access a link to ‘iPod Click Wheel Games’ by clicking the drop-down menu on the App Store link in iTunes. But now, that option has disappeared from the menu,” Hughes reports. “The removal comes as Apple is rumored to be planning to discontinue the iPod classic this year after the device’s form factor had a 10-year run.”
