== == Sony Discman D-50
As CDs overtook cassette tapes in both sound quality and
popularity, Sony saw the need to update its popular Walkman line
for a new generation. In 1984, on the one year anniversary of the
introduction of compact discs, Sony introduced their D-50 portable
CD player, the first ever portable digital music player.
