People, show some respect towards almighty Sony D303. It was one of the true greats with its full metal casing and great sound quality. Would probably smash every smartphone to ground with its sound quality.
True portable cd players weren't very small in the beginning but I was still thankful for them same with mini-disc. I use a sony playstation vita slim and sony extra bass sports earbuds(wf-sp800n)and 2 JBL xtreme speakers these days
I find it odd that it said that Sony invented it, when Phillips actually did, and Sony assisted in certain parts. Can you really say that you invented it when you only helped?
Actually, both companies were separately developing their own digital audio discs when they decided to collaborate to develop the Compact Disc standard. Philips had experience with optical discs arising from their collaboration with MCA DiscoVision on the development of the LaserVision Videodisc System (LaserDisc) and the original Philips idea conceived of an analog audio disc rather than digital. Prototype testing, however, had shown that analog FM would not have been ideal. Sony's expertise was with digital audio encoding. Their contributions was not only for the 16-bit/44.1kHz standard, but also with the error correction encoding (CIRC = Cross Interleaved Reed-solomon Code) required to help ensure that minor errors in the read did not cause problems in playback. Philips would then develop a means to encode the digital audio signal into a binary writing that would allow the disc to be properly read by the player (EFM = Eight to Fourteen Modulation). It can be said that the format in its current form would not have been possible without contributions from either company. It's also important to note that the basic idea of the format was patented in 1970 to James T. Russell, who did win litigation against Sony and Philips for patent infringement. Pioneer was also awarded for patent infringement charges against Sony and Philips; Pioneer Electronic Corporation had acquired DiscoVision Associates from MCA and IBM, including patents to the LaserVision Videodisc System, of which the Compact Disc implemented certain patented technological ideas.
When ad agencies actually knew how to make commercials.
Once you start listening to music cds on a discmen there's no going back Can't stand My phone for music awful.

By the 1990s, Radio DJs play a song in a CD player in every radio station in the United States.
