I commented a few week and I'm still waiting for a video cmon man! jk lol but I'm trying to find a good discman to hook up to my audio setup, I have an big old cd/DVD player but I need something smaller so I can save some space. I wasn't around when discman existed lol so I have no idea what to look for. Help!
