i saw the gescom reissue of their md-thing and wondered how that works ... they write it´s splitted up in ~ 80 pieces (different "songs") and it´s meant to be listened by randomness so that you get new tunes everytime you listen ... when i think of my md it takes always a little time till it switches the songs, so is "fluid" listening possible with that md?

yeah, i thought of just that when i sat on the bus today...i have a sony MD, and it takes about 2-3 sec. i guess before it switches to another track. it's only a year old and i want to get rid of it. making a MD is too much work.

copying tracks onto a MD from a CD...takes too much time, that's what i meant. i prefer listening to CD on Discmen. Then i can listen to "new"music everyday and not the same old Minidisc that i made perhaps 5 weeks ago.

hmmm, i like to make mixes - and i change them alot - another thing i like about md, cause the quality doesn´t get worser (when i remember my old mixtapes :)) ... i don´t know, i don´t care about the recording time, cause when i record an album most of the time i don´t know it, so it doesn´t matter cause i listen through the whole thing then ...

Im fond of doing mix albums... :) The only bad thing about MD is the very slight drop in quality due to the compression. Cant wait to get hold of the new CD medium that records very high frequencies.....

yeah, i heard about that too, that hey want to drop that compression somehow - do you know some more ´bout that?
i also heard that you can drop the compression by yourself (like autechre did with gescom md) - info?

there was a drive produced in japan, to save files on MD, that would be cool, some mp3's, wavs, pics, etc. but that was an exote, sadly...

I think the 'compression' on a MD is also an audio compression. Like a compressor plugin effect, as well as file compression. So it's like pressing the 'loudness' button on a car stereo. You 'compress' the audio making the quiet parts seem louder. That is the compression Ae overcame.
Besides that the Gescom sounds have a beautiful 8-bit sound to them half the time so it would be hard to notice any quality drop.
