Would like to get some more MDs but they are pricey for unopened ones - have these been sitting on shelves somewhere for the past 10 years or are they still being made?
Used to be my constant companion on the train into college. Then along came the mp3 and I stopped using this (I also had a Yamaha MDX596 separate which was excellent). Ended up in its bag for the last 15 or probably more years. Bought a new blank MD - which was shockingly expensive compared to what I remember - but it wouldn’t work properly, not recording and getting stuck on TOC writing. So I took it apart and greased some bits and now it is working again. Sounds surprising good despite being lossy format. It is a shame these technical marvels appeared when they did and had solid state mp3 players for competition.
Also thinking about trying to get another Yamaha 596 - although thé one I sold was mint.
Edit. Forgot what the Yamaha separate was actually called!
