===History=== *The first generation of Dell Digital Jukeboxes started out with two models: a 15 GB version for about $199 and the 20 GB version that cost $279 according to a 2004 [[Reader's Digest]] commercial.{{Citation needed|date=May 2012}} These initial models featured voice recording; MP3, protected and unprotected WMA, WAV file playback; and use as an external hard drive (pending driver installation). *The introduction of the second generation of Dell digital jukeboxes began with 5 GB Dell Pocket DJ (see below). Features unique to this second generation of players were its smaller physical size and firmware that achieved [[Microsoft PlaysForSure]] certification. Since then, Dell has produced 15 GB, 20 GB and 30 GB versions of their players. *In September 2005, Dell introduced the Dell DJ Ditty, a 512 MB flash memory based player. Features unique to this model (apart from its storage medium) were smaller physical size and integrated FM tuner. *On October 11, 2005, it was revealed that, both Sirius and XM (with partner Samsung) will offer an MP3 satellite player that fall. Dell then announced that it would upgrade to a third-generation DJ and Pocket DJ with capability to play XM radio streams pre-recorded on an accompanying dock system. A color screen would replace the monochrome display. *On February 6, 2006, it was announced that Dell discontinued their hard drive based players, and will not release any future models at this time. *On August 18, 2006, Dell discontinued production of the Dell DJ Ditty.
