Good question.
Could be any number of companies which have probably all since gone to the wall. Doubt it would be Sony though as they were probably still pushing their magnetic tape based music devices at the time. I did get through at least a couple of mp3 players well before any fruit based players came to market.
Did the hard drive player not come before the flash based one though, flash would have been an excessively expensive storage medium to get more than a couple of tracks on?
