The World’s First MP3 Player...


You could play the MP3 files on your computer or you could even transfer them to CD - provided you didn’t mind paying out £10 for a blank disc in the first place, and waiting 30 minutes for it to write while saying a little prayer to the CD-R gods, due to the media’s high failure rate at the time.

The $250 MPMan F10 came along and changed all that, however.
