Hi-MD 1GB MiniDisc is misleading

The product overall is good. You can store mp3 and pcm files. The only 2 problems I have with this player is that the files are hidden inside Sony's proprietary file system and you cannot upload files twice from the player. The second time it deletes the file from your disc. Beware of Sony's DRM. If you use it for recording interviews and want to convert it to wave files you will be good with the first upload but the second upload deletes your interview and you wouldn't know it until you try to...

Fantastic Product! But Don't Buy it Here!!

I love this minisisc. It holds an incredible amount of songs--the equivolent of an I-pod mini-- and the ease of use of my minidisc recorder is great. BUT DON'T BUY IT HERE! Just by having it in my order it jacked up the shipping charge by $9.00 while everything else in my order would have been shipped free. And you can get them at your neighborhood Radio Shack for the same price as here. I got a HI-MD recorder instead of an I-Pod and I'm glad I did. Just don't buy the disks from Amazon....

At last- great storage capacity

Having gotten the new 1 gb 45 hour disc mini disc, I am happy because it is now possible to get on one disc what I previously had to spread over 34 standard 80 minute discs. If I want, I can store about 900 songs, or 70 cd's, or save a whole year of voice lessons.Can you imagine how great it is to no longer worry about running out of disk space or having to delete tracks to create space, or using a lot of discs.For $6.99 for 45 hours, this is $0.15 per hour compared to about $1.50 per disc for the...

MINIDISC IS FOREVER!!

This disc can hold up to 40 discs on one mini.The sound quality is perfect.These discs can be hard to find in the stores,but they are available at www.minidisco.com.They even are available in 10 and 20 packs.I would also suggest buying the sony MZ-NH1.It's a little pricey,but the sound quality is excellent.It's almost as small as a minidisc and you can do everything from the remote.You can even download to and from your computer....

The Minidisc Improved

The Sony HMD1G Hi_MD minidisc is now a little bit more availableand is really a good idea. It is a major improvment on theoriginal minidiscs which only held 60 mins., 74mins., and 80mins.The new one holds just under Eight (8) hours of music or datawhen recorded in the standard play mode. Quite an accomplishmentfor Sony. I have to agree with the other reviewer who opines thatSony does not seem to be making a decent effort to "sell" theirproduct. IT is almost as if they want this format to go the...
