I love minidisc and im a bit gutted that it never replaced
cds it would be great to buy all new electronica on minidisc
and see minidisc drives on all computors.
Q. how many peeps use M.D on this board and do ya think they
are better than cds?

no course its not it sounds different. usually people work
with 44.1k uncompressed masters so cd is gonna be nearer
that than minidisc with its lossy atrac compression and
all..
depends on whether size is more/less important than sound or
whatever

geroge is right i use MD and recording in Lp4 is good and
all except for the sound qaulity. i love it also for its
sampling

i just put minidisc recorder in my car so i can record radio
when on the move because i always hear cool tunes on breeze
block and john peel when im on the road;)
plus there easy to post to my mates that are far away.
ive also lost many great albums on cd because of scratches,
my poor autechre album is dead:(
i love glitch but this is crazy .

I like MD better than cd's aside from the shitty compression
they have at the other settings. I used to have one, but I
would rather have one of those 20gig mp3 player/recorders.

minidiscs are a godsend for field recordings/samples. They
are often the easiest way to get original weird sounds onto
your PC/Mac

MiniDiscs are great - I love the extra protection cartridge!
Great way to back up old tapes...
