Holy shit, blast from the past. I had this exact player. I eventually moved onto using my PSP for MP3's and all my other media needs for awhile though.

 

[Nny7229]

I used my psp a ton as a media player. I remember downloading Salad Fingers videos from newgrounds and listening to the Silent Hill Experience UMD songs on it.

 

[Xion_Stellar]

Nope it was this

Good old Apple iPod shuffle (1st Generation) ‑ 512 MB

 

[Ce-Lin]

my first portable media player yeah, nice piece of hardware for the time

 

[MAtgS]

The GBA Play-Yan, an MP3 player cart you plugged into a GBA. This was my 1st, even went as far as to import it from Japan since it never sold here. Had it's own headphone jack for SP models too.

EDIT: already posted I see.

 

[CloudWolf]

My first MP3 player was a USB stick with a headphone socket. Beat that.

It could hold about 15 songs in terrible quality and I somehow got through an entire bustrip from the Netherlands to Florence with it.

 

[HolyJonte]

Sony Ericsson w800i, the first Walkman phone, and a 4gb memory card was the first portable video and music player for me. Such a good phone!!

 

[doctorblurg]

nah it was a sandisk one looked like this but it was blue

Got a OG model zune in 2007 I think?
I was using that up until just recently when the zune marketplace was finally killed for good RIP.

 

[BocoDragon]

I think it was yeah. Definitely how I first got into podcasts.

 

[Syriel]

Had one of the Diamond Rio 300 units.

The first MP3 player to be released in the US by a major manufacturer.

Had a whopping 32MB of storage and connected to a PC via parallel port.

The original iPod pulled some design cues from it a few years later.

 

[ieptbarakat]

Nope I had this thing, in all it's 512mb glory.

 

[Ceallach]

Had a Rio as well but a firewire model.

 

[L.O.R.D]

I had something like that

This,I think it was 32 or 64 mb

No way! Creative Muvo Nomad son!

Damn, I always see this is the store and feel jelly because it has 256 mb and can record mp3
I wished to have it so I can use it in the collage.

 

[Yawnier]

Nope. This thing was in 2007 or so (made by a company called Coby):

Went through like 3 of them (free warranty), then broke down and bought a iPod Touch which still works to this day. Piece of junk.

 

[VARIA]

Had one of these 4GB iPod mini's.

Was always blown away by the homebrew community (rockbox) and the stuff they could get this limited tech to do.

 

[Hip Hop]

The iPod Shuffle 2nd Generation was my first MP3 player.

Got it since I was able to buy my own stuff with my first job in High School. One of the best even though it had no screen. It was built like a tank. Even survived when I accidentally took it in the pool.

 

[MRORANGE]

This was my jam back in 2004:

Not even sure RealPlayer even exists now lol.

 

[NickatNite]

Nope, it was this. Around 2005ish

 

[Kurdel]

Nope this was my first:

 

[faridmon]

Actually yes.

What a great device, the only thing missing was Last fm scrobbler

 

[sotodefonk]

Mine was

that was the shit! I got it after my initial cd/mp3 player which was:

EDIT: actually no, the one I got later was the iriver T10, I even edited a theme for it... looks similar but its not the same...

 

[Ricker]

No but it was my first Podcast playlist player...the Official XBox magazine podcast,PSNation and Orange Lounge Radio,amongst others...

 

[Azure Phoenix]

Nope, I remember loading WMA files onto my Gamepark GP32 via a 128mb Smartmedia cart.

 

[Ashadur]

It was my first portable video player. I used to watch my downloaded cartoons on it and watched online videos.
