More commonly referred to as an MP3 player, a digital audio
player ("DAP") is a portable consumer
electronics device that stores, organizes and plays audio files. Some DAPs
are also referred as portable media
players as they have image-viewing and/or video-playing support. Most DAPs
are powered by rechargeable
batteries, some of which are not user replaceable. Listening to music stored
on DAPs is typically through earphones connected with a
3.5 mm jack. (-- Wikipedia)
