The original Walkman played pre-recorded cassette tapes, but the digital music file format known as MP3 is used in this version and enables recordings to be downloaded from the Internet. The device can store up to 80 minutes of music at a time. This model had been replaced with models with far greater memory capacity, as the technology of such devices has moved rapidly forward.
