The iPod classic & its mortal enemy…
Lint. I couldn't believe how much there was. The play/pause button — hosed. Before and after cleaning; it was worse before snapping these photos. Not crazy dust bunny land, but surprising for a device that appears to be airtight.
After cleaning, it's still a little wonky. Probably due to me mashing the play/pause button for the last few months before I had the nerve to crack the seals. And that?
A. Chore.
