In the early 2000s??? Are you sure they weren’t just messing with you?

I’m not sure about the timeline on portable mp3 player development and popularity, but this was 2002 or 2003 and I was the only one in my friend group who had one with a li-ion battery as opposed to AAA-batteries.

“USB doesn’t deliver power, it’s for file transfer!” I was told. Some of my friends were also really stupid, though. That could have contributed to this wonder of technology.
