For now, there doesn't seem to be any MP3 device that is close to taking down the iPod. The reason for that is because, there is a new generation of every iPod released once a year. The demand for iPods continues to stay at a high level with the new generations continuing to sale. Whether it's an iPod Classic, an iPod Nano, or an iPod Touch, there will be a high demand for iPods. iPod Apps are said to be on there way to taking down iTunes' music sales, and since iPod Apps are specifically made for Apple products, Apple will not be taken down--at least for now--anytime soon.
Here's proof of how Apple's Apps will eventually take down the music sales (Zaib):
Asymco has released a report that suggests that not only the number of apps and song downloads are increasing every month on iTunes but app downloads are increasing even faster. The number of apps downloaded per month is so large that if we compare it with the song downloads then we will see that the app downloads now have reached (after 2.2 years of launch) where song downloads reached after 5 years of launch.
