Does nobody use portable digital music players like the iPod or Walkman anymore?

I bought one a couple of years ago as a gift, a Sony Walkman, and it never got gifted (a whole other story), so in cleaning things out I found it, brand new in its box.

Originally I bought it for a little over $400 and put it out on local social media for sale at $125. Not a single person was interested, didn't even gat a lowball offer.

I'm thinking I'll end up giving it away... how can something go obsolete so fast? Is it because of smartphones?

Shoot, Ill take it. I had one about five years ago and I regret it's loss.

@IllThinkOfSomething Right, I mean it includes Wifi, bluetooth, a browser, and apps, plus something like 128Gb of music storage, a full color display to play music videos and on and on. Kind of blows my mind that those who are into music wouldn't gobble up a deal like this.

@Ontheroad that's more features than mine had.

@IllThinkOfSomething It's like a smartphone just without the phone/messaging part.
