Editing Portable media player (section)

=== Other early MP3 portables ===
Other early MP3 portables included the [[Creative Nomad|Creative Labs Nomad]] and the [[RCA Lyra]]. These portables were small and light, but had only enough memory to hold around 7 to 20 songs at normal 128&nbsp;kbit/s compression rates. They also used slower parallel port connections to transfer files from PC to player, necessary as most PCs then used the [[Windows 95]] and [[Windows NT|NT]] operating systems, which did not have native support for [[USB]] connections.
