music player

Portable sound system

A music player is a device or application that plays recorded audio.

The term covers physical devices like portable MP3 players and software applications on phones and computers: I downloaded a new music player for my phone.

Before digital formats, the role was filled by phonographs, tape decks, and CD players.
