If this happened to me I would just say "Holy shit, my ipod exploded and it gave me a cool scar". I wouldn't think of bringing a lawsuit against them. Shit happens, they can't guarantee every single product they make is 100% safe. Hell, you can choke on a carrot, should we sue carrot farmers? America's litigious society is killing it. Someone makes a product where one in 100 million fail? That's a lawsuit right there. It happens, I've been electrocuted by faulty products and I haven't sued. It just means that you might want to be more careful about which products you buy. Grow up and stop feeling like the world owes you something the minute something goes wrong.
