Sprout, A Modern Motherboard for old iPods

I, unfortunately, don’t have my old iPod Photo and Mini anymore, but this looks such a cool project.

The only thing I am really afraid of is this text deep down in the page:

working proofs of concept as of September 2026. Streaming services change their APIs often, so availability at launch may differ

I can see Spotify and Apple Music changing the API and the company loosing interest in play whack-a-mole to keep it working long time.
