Forums: iPod Phone Survey by Apple
Seems that some iLoungers in our forums have received a phone call from an Apple contracted company surveying iPod owners. iLounger “IDSmoke” said, “The poll was about what you would expect [regarding new iPods]… rate, on a scale from 1 to 5, how important the iPod’s size was in making your purchase decision… etc. Didn’t even provide the opportunity to make suggestions for improvements.”
Another iLounger, “Caterinka” received a call from a company representing Apple and said, “Her [survey representative] conclusion of platform satisfaction appeared to center around iTunes vs. whatever Windows users are interfacing with, which is pretty consistent with what we see here [in the foums]. Not necessarily a better platform, just a program that works very smoothly with the iPod.

They asked about all aspects. Took about 10 minutes. They asked about software, hardware, ease of use, battery life, where I used it. Even asked how I accessed music i.e. playlist or browse etc. Asked several demographics questions - age, number in household, other electronic devices. I think it was a satisfaction survey.
