No they are not ... I can tell you first hand that apple is more about the image than they are about making a quality product. Every single POS apple product lasts for what 2 years? and then they show battery issues or just magically stop working close to the warranty ending... They have you hooked so bad that when your iPod breaks you are ready to get the new better one thats .5 grams lighter and now is in COLOR!!! oh yea it also costs another couple hundred more...

Apple has always been about selling an image... once they get you hooked its sort of cult like - its not like they have the best UI or anything... thats not changed since day one... Its just that so many people have them ... that every one else thinks they are the cool people gadgets... and hey... cant blame everyone for wanting to be cool.
