BBC News shows that Apple has announced it will no longer be producing its music player, the iPod Touch, bringing an end to a device widely praised for revolutionizing how people listen to music.

There have been various iPod models over the years - including the Nano and Shuffle - but the iPod Touch, which was released in 2007 is the last model to be discontinued.
