It's not a scam, it's clever business. They interviewed the people who gave out ipods and it is legitimate. It's just that they know we wont be able to find people to sign up.

It is a scam, because you run out of people to sign up. Social circles are exausted exponentially quickly. You inevitably reach a state where you are competing for people to sign up. The only way you ever make out on these scams is if you get on it very early.
