Shuffle Discontinued

Is anyone else really bummed about them discontinuing the shuffle? I run every day and am not interested AT ALL in carrying my phone to listen to music while I run. I like the size of the shuffle and the fact it easily clips to my clothing. Really frustrated.

All of the ones I could find on Amazon were around $80. I did find some on Facebook market and I bought one for $35. It was someone who won it as a prize and wasn't going to use it. It was unopened. You could try there. I will probably still try to find a few more. Hope you can find some for your son that way that are reasonable. Actually I hope Apple reconsiders or comes up with another product that is similar.

We are bummed as well. Our son is autistic and we have relied on the Shuffle to provide him music in a simple to use format. With autism he has the tendency to press the controls repeatedly and quickly. (Live with a child with autism and you will understand the true meaning of perseveration.). We saw no notice that Apple was going to discontinue the Shuffle. We love all of our Apple products and are sad to see the loss of this valuable tool. We found some used ones at Amazon but are not sure how long those will be available.
