Rating: - Pricing beware
I have a HD mini disk bought from Amazon very cheap £60 for the 900 model I like MD but not so keen on Sony these days, software, DRM etc. So 4* for the MD and 1 gig disk.
Like the other review watch out for the EBay type sellers here £0.45p is not the cost, they actually charge £5 delivery for EACH disk, no discount for multi purchase.
Get these seller off Amazon they should be made to advertise correctly for the full price or limit the maximum delivery by true postage costs ... Read More
Rating: - Bit expensive but nice convenience
In response to the reviewer who stated that you can get 8 or 9 hours on a standard minidisc - yes you can, but at real poor quality (in terms of the potential quality MD and Hi-MD can give you). To get that much recording on a standard MD you have to use quite a low bit rate which results in a horribly brittle sound (just as with low bitrate MP3) and is not pleasant to listen to.
On a single 1 gig Hi-MD you can get just under 8 hours of music at the very nice 256 bps and is certainly near-CD ... Read More
Rating: - Pretty good value
Pros:
Cheap as chips now days, you get 1gb of data and audio storage (approx 45 albms with sonys coompression software.
Cons : need a Hi-MD Player
Overall, I find em quite good. as i have 1gb X no of minidiscs of storage thats portable,and a audio player with a long batterylife!
Rating: - prices have got to come down to make these worthwhile
If you have a Hi-Md recorder you can get over 9 hours out of a standard old-style MD & you could buy about seven of those for the price of one of these. This means that 1Gb Hi-Md discs are expensive for the recording time they give you. Get a Hi-Md recorder and just reformat your old discs.
