Radio Mecha - Music Box: Jazz I was reading Steven Levy's The Perfect Thing, about the iPod, and he says that, according to Apple's research, iPod owners are more likely to listen to rock music, and much more likely to listen to hip-hop, than people with other mp3 players. iPod owners, however, are less likely to listen to jazz, blues, folk and classical. Oh, and also, I'm playing some jazz on the Radio Mecha.
