‘Your mom just bought a portable CD player’
The RCA Lyra was an early solid state digital music player that supported RealAudio, MP3, and Wave audio files. Data storage was provided by removable type I and II Compact Flash cards and the RCA Lyra was power by two AA batteries.
A version of the Lyra Website from 1999 can be found at the Internet Archive. The user manual for the RCA Lyra can be found here.
