Call and tell Sony you want a blue ray mini disc video walkman player with backward compatibility touch screen video and music with software ATRAC. If alot of people call and let them know they will make it for md fans.

That would be badass!

MINIDISC FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And to continue my previous comment: How will you listen to all those thousands of songs when your batteries die after a few hours?? Since you can't change batteries in iPods (the very idea is stupid), you need to be somewhere near to a PC or AC connector to be able to recharge your iPod. What kind of portability is that? This way the whole idea of storing thousands of songs on a single unit is pointless.

Also this minidisc walkman looks more futuristic design and more cooler with funtions..... rather then boring mp3 devices with no disc of the music product ?

hi great video. Can u tell me if the minidisc walkman is old technology today? course i know there are stuf like mp3 without disc and such.... but i think without proven what u have as music... your music will be inside a harddrive and u cant see the actual product of the music to beging with... This device looks quite high tech... is this exsist or old stuff now? I havnt never seen minidisc music at the shop before.. it only seems CD music albums on sale.

@pusrob i use my iphone all day have no battery issues plus i dont have to buy battery's

[dummie20]

actually i think .wav is a better container for lpcm than flac cd format but i dont think ipods or minidisk use. wav even if they did they would still be compressed by mp3 or atrac witch brings us back to 272 against 320 kbps

[dummie20]

ipod ear buds really do suck i agree with that they should stop making them

[dummie20]

mps cuts out the inaudible parts of music also atrac format is 272 kbps at 80 min a disk. flack witch is cd format up to 1400 kbps standard iTunes mp3s 128 kbps my ipod is using mpeg format at 320 kbps my ipod beats your mini disk

@Phedrus1975 You're right on everything you mentioned. I have 7 MD players/recorders - one in my car, a portable one, two professional machines, one in my main home hi-fi setup, one in my secondary home hi-fi setup and one in my record setup - After so many years of listening pleasure in those machines i still think they excellent. Many years have passed, zero fail. I agree with Atrac format, i like the electronics, i like the way they sound and it's mechanical stability. MD forever.

Have to say I agree with everything here. I love my minidisc, and the sound reproduction seems to be far better than an mp3 player, even an iPod. Superior components perhaps?

People who only buy and collect singles do not appreciate music. They only buy the flavor of the month.
