Teenager Trashes 30-year Old Walkman In Comparison With iPod

Our Comments

The device that was provided to the teenager did not necessarily reflect the top end range of the Sony Walkman range. While it is true that the technology cannot compete with today's miniature, shock proof portable music device, it is useful to remember that without the musical revolution brought about by the Walkman, we would probably still be listening to transistors.
