This is true, to the extent that they don't make an MP3 walkman-style
device.  However, they do make an MP3 player.  The Sony CDX-MP450X is a
car AM/FM/CD/MP3 player.  It plays MP3 files that are burned onto a CD-R
or CD-RW, along with audio CDs and the radio.  Unlike the music clip, it
requires no special software apart from a CD burning program and something
to make/get MP3s with.

I'm not sure how the existance of this car deck affects your theory.
Since they have the technology and the willingness to build a _mobile_ MP3
player, I have to wonder why they aren't building a _portable_ MP3 player.
