CD Players

~contrarian

Does anyone know any good or at least good looking (portable) CD players?

Podcasts are popular, but I'm an audiobook man. Not because I'm trying to lean into the Y2K aesthetic with Books on Tape, but because a library was throwing out a lot of audiobook CDs so I got them.

A brief search has revealed at least 3 new portable CD players were crowdfunded in the last year or so.

I like the Sony prison one that's clear, but it's too expensive for a novelty.

Not super related, but I think vertical CD players look great.

Hmmm

When I was younger, I had a Bush portable CD player because it was the only one I could afford

And it was quite good! But one day I dropped it on the floor and it broke :'-(

If I recall, it cost me the equivalent of about 40 bucks, so it was quite cheap. I loved it very much though
