Sony announced that MiniDisc (MD) Walkman's will no longer be produced after September this year. Last year, Sony stopped production of its cassette Walkman players.
The MD Walkman was launched in Japan in 1992 and was touted as a superior jitter-free product for listening to CD quality music on the go. But, as we all know, MP3 players like iPods quickly snapped up that market, and today the move is all to phones being your portable music device as well.
Sony will continue to produce MD media and kits to play these on hi-fi systems.
