@ Cennydd - iPod ubiquity changed the old research findings. 10 years ago "normal" people weren't too aware of the different transport controls (especially the more esoteric ones such as next track/previous track). Now, a larger number use them on a daily basis. Of course, you could still screw things up with poor button placement. What I would point out in training sessions is that the red circle, when seen on its own, is often associated with "stop", but in transport controls it means "record". Of course in the days of physical controls you had to also hold down play to make record work, so the cost of the error would be lower.
