Back in '98, I thought this was gonna be the next big thing

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

I don't even know what that is


these things were flying tho

mini disk. made irrelevant by the cdr and burn drives plus the advent of digital music files and napster

it was a clunky transition technology between cd's and mp3 era. if you blinked it was here and gone in the timeline for reasons I named above... sony was taxing too much for the tech and the software you used to upload the music to your player was clunky as fukk

You and me both fam. I loved the mini disc era.

I still have mine. Recording a ripped lossless CD from your computer through optical to the minidisk deck sounds so sweet, even to this day.

I was definitely on that sony minidisc wave. So dumb only slightly more convenient than CDs at the time. Playback quality wastho.

A lot more convenient than carrying a book full of dics to play. let's not downplay that

Can't still beat some old technology

I bought the blank discs, home player with recorder, the portable joint, then the actual deck for the whip, etc.

I got over 200 mini discs up in the attic that I made over a 4 of 5 yr span.

People would get in the car and be like

I'd be like "yeah, ppl ain't up on this yet"


Ppl never got up on it

Had the sport Minidisc Sony made, wish I still had some of the stuff I put on there 20 years ago. You could record straight to it like a cassette but in CD quality, shyt was fire

Breh, I been waiting 26 yrs for a comment like this


I gotta get on Amazon and find a MD Player

only way i'd go back to this is if someone made a freeware jail broken software program to manage your files. that was always the deal breaker with this joint. it needed some third party love. a better process for loading shyt

I had one in like 03-04 before I got an mp3 player. It was cool because it had more storage at the time

I also had a CD player that could play burned audio files in the Data format so you could fit like 9-10 albums on there. It was jank as fukk and killed the battery tho lol

prices came down from ridiculous on these after 02 i got one around then too. last album i remember uploading to a minidisc was the love below

the sound was crispy as fukk to me. made listening a pleasure.
