[ahpook]

found it whilst clearing out - i used to use them in my 8-track back when it still worked.

it's been unwrapped, but iirc, never used.

free to good home

Just out of interest – how do the data minidiscs differ from the audio ones? I’ve got about 50+ audio minidiscs from back in the day when they were numero uno for portable audio and I remember thinking at the time “why don’t they make a MD drive for PC? That would be so good!”, but it seems they did and in its short life it passed me by?

i've no idea what the difference is i'm afraid.

i can't remember what happened if you put a datadisc in an audio minidisc player.

I remember Sony brought out a 1GB minidisc and accompanying recorders. Would've been alright for multitrack digital recording!

i loved my yamaha md8..iirc you could 17mins of 8-track, 34 mins of 4-track, etc.

i've still got it - the minidisc section doesn't work, but the 8-track desk does - it was a nice-sounding mixer
