Products 
 
PortalPlayer dedicates 75 percent of its engineering resources to firmware and software development and support. Customers can choose from a suite of technologies including decoders and encoders, equalizers, multiple storage media, file systems, and digital rights management. The selected technologies are incorporated into a single system image and jointly integrated by PortalPlayer and the customer.

This approach enables an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or original design manufacturer (ODM) to produce a system that is easily adapted to different product configurations. For example, a product with the complete suite of media technologies from Sony, including Memory Stick, MagicGate and OpenMG, can be offered in Japan, while North American consumers are offered MP3 and Microsoft Windows Media Audio and Windows Media Rights Manager on the same basic platform.
