How come there isn't music controls when you press the sleep button on an iPhone or iPod touch?

You can! Just double-tap the circle button.

Aww… Once again beaten to the punch. Squirbel is right, just double tap the home button.

Sorry hehe, I’ll scale back :)

I’ve answered very few the past couple days! I deserve that much credit :D

Haha, I must be slow, this is the fourth time ive known an answer but got beaten =p

I found that the best way to stop an iPod Playing without pressing any buttons is to hit it firmly across the corner of a table, works every time!

wow I feel dumb idk that. That’s cool.
