Portable media players

Before smartphones took over the tech world, you needed a specific device in order to reliably play media such as videos, music and photos on the go.
Notes:
1. The cheap made in China media players you still see in stores like Wal-Mart today are not included on this list, we are mainly focusing on the pre-smartphone era.
2. Android and iOS devices are not included here as well since they have their own pages.
