It was never called a Tapeman, so why disc?
It should be a runman or a walkwoman.

The Walkman was by Sony, and they did make CD versions. This is clearly Panasonic trying to capitalize on brand recognition by having a similar sounding name to an already well recognized name.
-
Discman is Sonys CD Walkman line.
My point was that Walkman never mentions tapes, so why mention the media format in the sequels name.
-
That's because the sequel had to differentiate itself from the first one. It had to tell you not only that it was a similar idea to the first, but also that it used discs instead of tapes.
The first Walkman had nothing to differentiate from. It was the first.

Because you could hardly walk, let alone run with one if you actually wanted to enjoy the music

The anti skip actually worked really well. I used to have it in my backpack and didn’t have many issues.
Although I couldn’t afford many batteries to run it often, and rechargeable sucked.
