A long time ago (almost seems like a different life ...) I owned a Sony Walkman and fed it with self-recorded audio cassettes. It was purple metallic and looked kind of cool, considering the era. Considering today's perspective, I think it sounded awful.
In a later life I had a classic iPod just because this was cool at its time. But I was a bit older then and hardly ever used it for its original purpose. I spent too much time in my car, so the best idea was to pair it with an FM transponder (a US product, not really legal in Germany because of its transmitting power). This was a good option for my long business trips.
My current car, a Citroen estate, has a decent midclass audio system and a partition on the on board computer hard disc reserved for mp3 audio files. Not really high fidelity, but sufficient for mobile use.
Apart from this I've got no real use for a mobile system anymore. When walking in the city I enjoy the life sound of the city, when walking by the river I enjoy the life sound of the river. That's about it. My Audio is mainly stationary now, and I'm happy with it.
