Someone is enlisting the public to help find an old iPod filled with 10 years worth of terrible music

Hoping for a safe return.

iPods have gone out of fashion, but there are still people who hold those portable media players as sacred — like this now musically deprived person who posted a sign for a missing iPod in Airdrie, Scotland.

A picture of the sign was shared on the /r/Scotland Reddit page.

We can only begin to imagine the volumes of music from the past 10 years that could qualify as "terrible music that no one else would like." But you know what, we get it. We've all had questionable tastes in music at one point or another.

One Redditor, surprised by the reward, wrote, "That's an awfully generous reward for an iPod worth no more than £50."

Fair point. However, there is no price too great when it comes to music nostalgia. We'd pay it, too.
