@grvsmth@lingo.lol I wonder if it might also be related to the fact that an ipod is dedicated to music. Perhaps if they'd bought the mp3s to play on a smartphone they wouldn't have called it physical media

I've seen this use of "physical," where it just means removing a layer of virtuality. It's entirely relative. Something like, "I had to physically SSH into the server!"
