I've fixed more of these "tube" sony mp3 players since the release of Persona 3 Reload than the past decade! Here's another one that came in for a simple battery replacement but turns out the screen was also dead. Luckily I was able to find another sony model that uses the same display so let's try to swap the working screen into this customer's player. This is definitely one of the hardest repairs I've done given how fragile these screens are so attempt at your own risk!
