One of the advantages of buying a genuine iPod is the Apple iPod warranty that comes with it. All iPod's are covered for one year from the original purchase date. The warranty covers defects in material and workmanship; replacement products and repairs are covered for ninety days. If you have a problem with your iPod and it is still under warranty, contact Apple directly and they will address
. your concerns. Once a year from the original purchase date has passed the warranty will expire leaving you responsible for any repairs that may become necessary.
