You really made a video about a product with not much going for it and you made the video 11 minutes by roasting the box and made it entertaining. Legend.
I bought an Apple eMac and the “titanium box” it came in was just two half boxes taped together with some bubblewrap for one of the most fragile computers ever. There is no excuse for this over packaging.
eMacs were never advertised as having anything at all made of titanium, and certainly not the packaging?! They were only sold to the education market anyway lol
As I watch more and more videos from this channel, I’m slowly discovering the origins of various running jokes, and it makes me feel like an archaeologist slowly piecing together the skeleton of an acient ruler through bones uncovered in the ruins of various lost civilizations Like before this video, I haven’t had any idea why he calls them “egg bags”.
im watching so much dankpods lately that im actually catching up with the lore, first him explaining 1 grit, frank being a stinky long idiot, the birthvideo of the duck and now.. E G G B A G S
when he read out "Hold switch" before saying "dot dot dot" my internet cut out and the video froze for an uncomfortable amount of time before I realised it was not emphasis on the succeeding dots he was about to read.. now my internet is back and I'm watching the rest. what a wild ride.
I bought three iPods in the span of the week and I absolutely blame this channel. I even bought a Creative Zen player. A CREATIVE ZEN! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME, DANKPODS?
Nah probably overworked Chinese, expecting it to go on a hanging display on dollar stores (or whatever they're called where you live, they're 1,99 here). That kind of crap is ALWAYS packed in that hateful blister thing that destroys your hands more than anything, and I really don't get it why they write so much on it, it's like they're trying to convince you it has a ton of features because ton of text and ton of air on the package.
A few years ago the Kmart in my town closed. During the liquidation sales, they brought out all the junk that's been sitting in their stock room for years. I swear this was one of the items they tried to sell.
Just figured I'd mention this as I did help design retail packaging at one point in the dim distant past for 3.5" floppies (yes, that long ago), we were required by retailers to make our packages larger than this box, because "loss prevention"... which always seemed silly to me, as if the item is small enough to fit in my pocket, a quick flick with a pocket knife and I have the tiny item...
“This package is like my Dad designed it” Front of the package: High quality...easy to use Me: he’s right my dad always puts ... in everything he writes, ok..., yeah..., just in case..., love you...
The package is bigger to take up more shelf space so you see it and it gives the impression of added value. The reason it's thick is so it can be set on a shelf or hung on a hanger. Most importantly it was probably a format or shape the packaging company already had or the equipment was set up for reducing costs of creating a custom one. They probably sold one with a wall charger or power bank or something so no need to make different ones.

Just gonna point out (that I love your content and) the RiO Forge had a receiver, whereas the iTrip mini allows you to PLAY tracks off of your iPod Mini on nearby radios and devices with receivers, as opposed to receiving incoming radio broadcasts.
Rio Forge was my first MP3 player when I was a runner in high school. The thing was epically indestructible on runs. When I got an iPod Nano, I was blown away, but still used the Rio for my running. RIP old friend.
