I remember MD players, but nobody really cared about them and they didn't catch on in Canada. I think there was maybe one kid in my whole high school who had one. Although, I feel nostalgic for the technology that I missed and I'd like to try one out just to have the experience. I'm still waiting for the right model to come along. I did buy one from Book-Off last year, but I returned it because it was defective.

I made the transition from the discman to mp3 by 2002 when my parents got me a 250 mb mp3 player from Korea for my birthday that year. Around that time, there was the Microsoft Zune, but I don't recall anyone I knew owning one.
