Over time, with smartphones assuming all entertainment duties and driving several gadgets like point-and-shoot cameras and media players into obsolescence, the Walkman lost its significance. From a cassette player, the Walkman metamorphosed into a portable CD player and eventually an ‘MP3 player’. Other than a fashion statement for many, it was also a de facto device to make your music personal.
What Xerox was to photocopiers and Google to search, Walkman was synonymous with portable audio cassette players back in the 80s and 90s. The mere mention of a Sony Walkman brings back so many great memories (assuming you are old enough to know what an audio cassette is).
