The Creative NOMAD Jukebox is an early portable digital audio player released by Creative Technology in 2000. It stored music on an internal hard disk rather than removable flash memory and was designed to hold a larger collection of compressed audio than many earlier portable players. The product is historically associated with the transition from carrying individual recordings to carrying a digital music library in one device.
