Sony Walkman And Its Marvelous 35 Years Of Evolution




Sony Walkman MZ-1

The MZ-1 was the music player that introduced the MiniDisc format. Sony’s emphasis was on portability and convenience so it was the only right way for the company to stay ahead in the game. This very Walkman introduced the idea of compressed digital sound recoding to the home user. It employed the original form of Sony’s ATRAC codec which was capable of reasonable results.



Sony CD Walkman D-E01

After MiniDisc, Sony brought out another means of cassette - the Compact Disk (CD). The company introduced Discman way back in 1984 but in the later years around 1999 Sony replaced the name with CD Walkman. The device featured a lustrous silver finish, chrome-plated control and an eject button too. The windows on the unit and remote control had a luxurious polarizing coating that made controlling of the music easy.
