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.

Rumors suggest that Apple is discontinuing the click-wheel iPod Classic. It seems obvious that an iPod touch with similar storage capacity (128GB) will ultimately replace it, though such a device hasn’t shown up in the store yet.

No new software has appeared for the iPod Classic in some time, but I don’t understand why Apple would remove existing apps from the App Store – what harm is there in keeping it on? I still have an iPod Classic that gets use on long road trips – it’s the only thing big enough to support my entire iTunes library. I’ve spoken with other users who still depend on theirs too, so I know they’re in use.
