Of course, the Walkman brand is still very much alive and kicking, with the odd portable CD player and, more prolifically, digital MP3 and hi-res variants like the Sony NW-ZX300 Walkman. The original Walkman, released in 1979, was a portable cassette player that allowed people to listen to music of their choice on the move. Over 200 million Sony Walkman cassette players were sold before Sony retired the classic cassette tape Walkman line in 2010. Long before CDs, MP3s, and streaming music, the Sony Walkman paved the way for portable personal music.
