The iPods play video. MP3 players are usually just songs.
But yeah, I think they are mostly the same thing.
To build on what Foxi said, let's put it this way: my Sansa Fuze v1 plays any kind of music format and a couple of video formats. An iPod Whatever plays music formats including MP3 and a couple of video formats. They're both MP3 players, because - no shit - they play MP3 files. There is no difference.To a certain degree, they are.To my knowledge, they still do.the grey masses honestly believed that an iPod and an "MP3 Player" are two completely different things.

APPLE doesn't make the iPhone itself. It neither manufactures the components nor assembles them into a finished product. The components come from a variety of suppliers and the assembly is done by Foxconn, a Taiwanese firm, at its plant in Shenzhen, China. The “teardown” graphic below, based on data from iSuppli, a market-research firm, shows who makes what inside the iPhone, and how much the various bits cost. Samsung turns out to be a particularly important supplier. It provides some of the phone's most important components: the flash memory that holds the phone's apps, music and operating software; the working memory, or DRAM; and the applications processor that makes the whole thing work. Together these account for 26% of the component cost of an iPhone.
