minus-squarepsvrh@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up24·7 months agoLooks like I’m just old. Sony used the Discman branding in the mid 90s and went back to Walkman in the late 90s and early 2000s. For me, Walkman meant tape or cassette, but again, I’m old. Old enough to have been listening to Depeche Mode on tape on my Walkman.

minus-squareOoglieguy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·7 months agoSame for me. I was rocking out to Cinderella, Scorpions, and Poison on my Walkman and then it sounded better later on the Discman with no need to flip or rewind for the specific songs.
