It's minidisc and they are still very much alive and kicking
as both a portable music player and portable recordin unit.

God bless you for asking though my child.

it did kind of go tits-up, I believe the production of
"music minidiscs" (as in: minidiscs with albums on them) has
pretty much halted.

there were also rumours of Sony largely stopping the
production of recordable minidiscs. but that could very well
be very false indeed.

i only know of one person who ever used minidiscs, and they
lost their player/recorder, so they don't anymore.

i just ordered one of the new ones w/ the 1 gig discs and
losless pcm recording (oh and they work as a usb harddrive
without drivers) :)

i got some in-ear binaural microphones too, for discretely
sampling unknowing victims...

for recording audio at MD's price theres still no equivalent
product

yeah presley the lower-end 1 gig models are fucking
enormous... like 3 centimetres thick
the one i got is 22 mm.... still nothing to boast about
the most expensive one is 15mm, but that things expensive

autechre use minidiscs, freeform sampled the stuff for
Audiotourism with minidiscs, and i think i heard four tet
uses them too.... so there, some celebrity endorsements
i think that says it all
