IRiver
Company profile[edit]
South Korean manufacturer of compact, portable digital mp3 storage devices for music recording and playback, since 1999. Storage media were initially hard disks, but also included fixed flash memory. The spread of the smartphone reduced customer interest in separate mp3 players, so Iriver largely ceased business.
Products[edit]
Portable mp3 players, on many iriver devices live music and speech could be recorded in high quality thanks to a built-in microphone and appropriate mp3 coder hardware and software.
